  • An elegant and complex expression of Sancerre, with concentrated Mirabelle plum and peach underpinned by delicate hints of licorice, anise, and mineral notes. The lovely rounded texture on the palate is beautifully framed by mineral freshness.

The grapes were carefully selected and gently pressed before the must was vinified in temperature-controlled concrete eggs. The egg shape helps to keep the liquid constantly in motion, so the temperature is more consistent, and the leaves remain in suspension. The resulting wine achieves a greater character and volume on the palate. Fermentation took place with selected yeasts, and once fermentation was complete, the wine was matured on its lees in concrete eggs for 10 months.

This is a textured and salivating expression of Sancerre, with fresh and intense notes of exotic fruit, boxwood, and grapefruit underpinned by rich and spicy citrus notes offering opulence. The palate has a lovely rounded texture, beautifully framed by mineral freshness.

Winery

The grapes are grown in 0.55 hectares of vineyard within the estate, from vines with an average age of 30 to 35 years. The vines face a south-easterly orientation, maximizing exposure to the sun to assist in the ripening of the berries. The soils are predominantly calcareous clay, typically with a high limestone content, producing elegant and textured wines with distinctive minerality. The vineyard is converting to organic status, a natural progression for the Laloue family, as the farming methods used over many years have followed these principles. Vineyard management techniques include ploughing the soil instead of using herbicides, growing cover crops between the rows of vines, and sexual confusion of predators to maintain the vines' health and the environment's biodiversity.
