Regular price $37.00
Unit price per
100% Pinot Noir
A Pinot Noir with surprising character, offering great intensity on the palate, with red fruit aromas (raspberry and strawberry in particular) and subtle hints of spice, very typical of a Sancerre.
"This is a delightful Pinot Noir from the Sancerre cooperative, Comte de la Chevaliére. Its generous aromatics of crushed stone and wild mountain berries marry nicely with savoury dried herbs. The palate is lithe and elegant, with wild country berries, chopped fresh herbs, and an earth-driven mineral tone that cuts across the entire palate. This is a delicious red Sancerre." 92pts Decanter
