2015 Loire

Sancerre is best known for its white wines, but its reds, made from Pinot Noir, can also be of good quality, particularly in warmer years such as 2015. Daniel is a multi-instrumentalist musician, while his son Simon has now taken over the business and is working on converting the estate to organic viticulture.  

The warm vintage has provided extra stuffing to this wine and allowed the oak to marry seamlessly in the form of subtle peppery spice notes. These sit among succulent cranberry and redcurrant fruit, all underpinned by a freshness characteristic of the cool Sancerre microclimate, giving a very elegant wine. Drink now to 2020.
