Sancerre Wine Cellar - Les Chataigniers
Loire Valley - Sancerre AOP
Vineyard
The Cave Coopérative de Sancerre was founded in 1963 and is now the only cooperative in the appellation, bringing together more than a hundred winegrowers. The Sancerre vineyard, in the heart of Berry, extends over 15 communes and 3,000 hectares on limestone and siliceous soils, perfectly suited to growing vines. 80% of the plots in the appellation are occupied by a white grape variety, Sauvignon.
Winemaking
Viticulture is conventional and the harvest is mechanical. This vintage comes from a blend from limestone soils, with vinification at low temperature in thermoregulated stainless steel vats.
Tasting
This wine has a pale color. It offers discreet but complex aromas of white flowers and exotic fruits. It is very fresh on the palate.
