Sancerre rouge, La Réserve de Marcigoué, François Crochet - 2020

The first thing to admire is the absence of woody character on the nose as well as on the palate, even though the wine is vinified and aged in the Burgundian style. This vintage is fleshy, vinous, full and dense, with explosive fruit (Morello cherry) free of any vegetal character or hardness. It enters the closed circle of the - rare - great red Sancerre! A wine for the demanding wine lover.

Technique

Viticulture

It comes from an east-facing limestone terroir. The 35 year old vines are in organic conversion.

Oenology

The grapes are harvested at optimum maturity and the harvest is sorted and destemmed before a 20-30 day vatting period. The wine is aged in barrels for 12 months, half of which are new or one wine.

Suggestions for accompaniment

Roast poultry - Pigeon casserole - Pheasant terrine - Livarot.

Domain
In a vineyard that is known and successful worldwide, whatever the viticulture model practiced, Carine and François Crochet do not rest on their laurels, because they have made the bet of the highest quality, while respecting their vines, their soils and their teams! Thus, not content with signing for nearly twenty years precise vintages capable of aging gracefully, they have taken the step of organic (certified since the 2017 vintage) and are even in the process of biodynamic certification Biodyvin since 2020. Although pruning is carried out according to the most advanced contemporary techniques, respecting the sap flow, systematic disbudding is nevertheless carried out in the spring in order to contain the natural vigour of the Sauvignon, but also to get the best maturity out of the Pinot Noir, which is vinified partially without disbudding. From now on, all the vinifications are carried out with indigenous yeasts. They are followed by prolonged maturing to achieve purity and full expression of the wine: the non-woody whites are matured in stainless steel or truncated wooden vats, while the reds are sublimated in non-new barrels. The result is deep, sapid and harmonious wines that make the most of their terroirs and vintages. At the top of their appellation.
