Sancerre Red
Sancerre Red
Made from pinot noir (red-skinned grape with clear juice). The grapes are macerated and fermented in temperature-controlled, stainless steel vats. The wine macerates for 3 weeks in order to extract its aromas, tannins and colour from the grapes.
When the alcoholic fermentation has finished, the juice is drawn off and the rest is pressed. The wine is then left in vat to go through a malo-lactic fermentation.
The wine is racked several times and lightly filtered before being put into bottle, so as to keep its natural structure (there could, therefore, be a little natural deposit in the bottle).
