Sancerre Blanc "Le Grand Roc"

Fiou, Domaine Gerard
France
Loire
2022

This cuvée comes from 62-year-old Sauvignon Blanc vines with a south-southwest exposure, on a soil composed of silica and clay soil.  Part of the wine is vinified in cement and “inox” tanks, and another part in new oak barrels; the wine is aged for 10 months on the fine lees, with bâtonnage.

"A well-rounded, precise and focused Sancerre with aromas of quince peel, leaves, stones and hints of guava. It’s medium- to full-bodied with bright acidity and a dense core of juicy fruit and spices. Mouthwatering finish with excellent persistence."
