Sancerre Blanc - D'Antan 2022
The plots of Sauvignon blanc from which 'd'Antan' is made consist of old vines on a rich, flint soil typical of the soils located alongside the Loire river. Yields are naturally low; use of organic fertilizers only; grass is grown between the rows.
This wine is full of aromas such as lime, verbena but also delicate mineral nuances (flint). In mouth, fresh touch of grapefruits, almonds, hawthorn and light touch of coconuts. Its minerality gives it a great length. Concentrated, full and fine, equally excellent when young or up to 6 – 8 years ageing.
As a tribute to the old methods, we make our Sancerre “D’Antan” without neither fining nor filtration. Very small yield, fermentation in 4, 5 and 6 year-old oak barrels followed by maturation on very fine lees. Only two rackings are carried out (according to the lunar cycle) before bottling.
Sancerre “D’Antan” is an excellent companion to fish, shelfish and white meat. Grilled lobster, turbot in a meat sauce and spit-roasted sweetbreads with a truffle sauce: a few delicacies matching perfectly this fine wine. Or tempt your guests with a vacherin cheese from Mont d’Or with dried pears!
