DOMAINE DE LA ROSSIGNOLE SANCERRE BLANC 2008 DOMAINE DE LA ROSSIGNOLE SANCERRE BLANC 2008

The Cherrier family have been making Sancerre for a very long time - since 1848 in fact. The domaine is now run by Francois and Jean-Marie Cherrier and the long tradition of wine making in the family is not lost on them. This is a textbook Sancerre; dry with lovely citrus character, a deep and savoury mineraility and considerable length.

Domaine de la Rossignole is located near the commune of Verdigny, northwest of the village of Sancerre. The family Cherrier represents three generations of Sancerre winemakers, with 14 hectares of vineyards. The vineyards are rich in silex and chalk.

Cheerier and his sons perform multiple green harvests to keep yields low, and harvest all their fruit by hand.
