SANCERRE DPO WHITE DOMAINE PICARD

17,00 € incl. VAT

Winegrowers for several generations (since 1750), the Jean-Paul Picard et Fils estate passionately cultivates its 14 hectares of vines, all located on the Bué hillsides, which are among the best in the Sancerre region.

Having learnt the lessons of the past, they have adapted modern techniques while retaining manual harvesting and traditional know-how.

Since Mickael joined the domaine in 2004, the estate has also been growing vines in the Menetou-Salon appellation to produce white and red wines.

Description

THE WORD OF THE WINEMAKER: A very fine white Sancerre, full of depth and elegance. This white Sancerre is a wonderful reflection of the Sauvignon grape variety. This wine comes from magnificent south-facing slopes, which give the grapes sufficient maturity to produce a dry, fruity wine.
