Francois Crochet Sancerre Rouge 2023

François Crochet Sancerre Rouge is a premium red wine produced by François Crochet, a renowned winemaker from the Sancerre appellation in the Loire Valley, France. The wine is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the region's unique terroir, which is characterized by limestone and clay soils. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is elegant and refined, with a delicate balance of fruit and earthy notes.

Sancerre is one of the most famous places in France for white wine. It is located on the left bank of one of France’s most famous rivers, the Loire. Sancerre is one of the fastest selling wines in the market because they offer great value for the price. While Sancerre makes red wines from the Pinot Noir grape, it is most famous for the white Sancerre made from Sauvignon Blanc.

Sancerre (rouge) comes from many parcels around Bué on soft to medium slopes facing southerly directions between 220-250 meters on limestone bedrock and rocky topsoils with red and brown clay.

This François Crochet Sancerre Rouge has a deep ruby hue and a nose of ripe red berries, cherries, and violets.
