Sancerre Blanc Tradition is grown on a limestone clay terroir, with overlaying limestone and flint, and planted with vines of an average of 30 years. The harvest is making mechanically. After a slow pressing, the big lees are racked and the must is pumped over in tanks for the alcoholic fermentation that lasts 15 to 20 days at low temperature (about 17°C). After maturing between 2 and 7 months on fine fermentation lees so as to avoid any aromas’loss, this wine will be racked and fined with bentonite. After few weeks, the wine will be more racked, filtered then bottling.
Full of finesse, this wine shows fruity (citrus) aromas, floral (white flowers) with a touch of minerality.
