Sancerre, Loire Valley - 100% Pinot Noir
Pronounced and inviting aromas of fresh red berries like strawberry, ripe raspberry and a touch of black cherry finishing with a savoury subtle depth of cured meat. On the palate, this wine exhibits a delicate balance, well-integrated tannins mingle with flavours of red plum skin. Underlying earthy notes of frizzled herbs and crushed stones lend a distinctive complexity. "Elegantly Earthy" 13.5% abv.
Pairing Suggestions: Consider pairing it with duck breast, lightly seasoned and pan-seared to bring out its natural flavours. Try this with meats cozied up in puff pastry or perhaps some earthy mushroom dishes. It's surprisingly great with veal, roasted poultry, and, if you're feeling a bit adventurous, grilled fish. Soft cheeses, like Brie or Camembert, enhance the wine's earthy undertones. For a lighter touch, a beet and goat cheese salad can emphasize the wine's natural acidity and fresh berry flavours.
