Paul Prieur et Fils, Sancerre Les Pichons Rouge 2016 (750ml)
The 5 hectares of Sancerre Rouge are grown in a local spot known as “”Les Pichons”” below the Monts Damnés hill. The soils are limestone-clay (limestone subsoil). They are deep enough to enable the vines to root well and draw out all the richness of the terroir. The palate is light and smooth, offering notes of ripe raspberries, apricots and savoury spices.
