Sancerre La Terre Des Anges - Laporte

France – 2022

13% ABV  

Tasting Notes

The white Sancerre is characterised by delicate aromas of ripe fruit. In the mouth, the balance is remarkable. This wine has a round, velvety and silky structure, which ends with a mentholated freshness. On the palate, the final note is long and elegant. 

Food Matching

This wine is particularly appreciated with grilled fish, shellfish and even with frog legs. 

Bottle Information

Vineyard: In the 12th century, Etienne, Count of Sancerre gave a slope located in Ménétréol to the religious order of Grandmontains. Aware of the exceptional quality of the soil, they developed wine-growing on this slope. In 1997, Laporte acquired a vineyard of 4.8 situated in the heart of this slope whose ground is composed of clay and is rich in stones. This wine is certified organic farming.  

Vinification: After pneumatic pressing and after racking at low temperature, the wine ferments in stainless steel tanks at temperatures ranging from 18°C to 20°C. No malolactique fermentation is used. The wine is then matured on its fine lees until bottling in June
