Roc de L'Abbaye L'Antique Sancerre 2022 750ml
Flinty, mineral and bright with punchy citrus and grassy notes...
Winemaker Description
L'Antique' was created 30 years ago, and is one of my very first Sancerre cuvées. The grapes come mainly from the best Silex hillsides in the village of Saint-Satur. For this cuvée, I wanted to follow my grandfather's footsteps by making an unclarified, slightly filtered wine, allowing the elegance of the terroir to shine through to the full.
