Sancerre Rouge

A Loire made Pinot Noir, with a Burgundian sensibility, the Sancerre Rouge by Vacheron lends some great insight into the potential of the varietal here, from those who give it focus.

These old vines sit on a combination of chalk and flint, yielding an expressive and energetic style of Pinot Noir, with a core of red berry, pomegranate, orange zest, crushed florals and gentle pepper like spice. It's delicious and beautifully judged.
