Tasting Note: The white Sancerre LesGrandmontains 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.

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. Nomalolactique fermentation is used. The wine is then matured on its fine lees until bottling in June
