2023 Domaine Jean Paul Picard Sancerre Rose

Domaine Jean-Paul Picard et Fils is a family-run estate with an incredibly long history, having been in the same family since 1750.

Today they passionately cultivate 14ha of vines, all of which are situated on the slopes of Bué and are among the best sites in the region. Guided by the lessons of the past and by their accumulated artisanal knowledge, they practice ‘lutte raisonnée’ to preserve soil health and insist on manual harvesting of the grapes. One of the peculiarities of the domaine is that they have a multitude of small parcels, each with its own character, that are vinified according to their terroir and position. Vinification takes place using indigenous yeasts in their modern gravity-fed winery, resulting in high-quality, expressive wines that are full of complexity.

Tasting Note: Salmon pink colour, with intense exotic fruit aromas. In the mouth this wine is dry, fruity and supple with hints of flora.

Food matching: Great with grilled meats such as pork and all day long in the summer.
