Sancerre Rouge

2013 Sancerre Pinot Noir

Domaine Serge Laporte Sancerre Rouge is a beautifully expressive red wine made from Pinot Noir in the renowned Sancerre region of France. This 2013 vintage showcases the elegance and finesse typical of Sancerre, with a bright ruby color that glimmers in the glass. The wine presents a medium body that balances perfectly with a high acidity, offering a refreshing lift and vibrancy to each sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing delightful notes of red berries and subtle hints of cherry, underlined by a gentle earthiness that adds depth and complexity. The tannins are well-structured and provide a firm backbone, ensuring that the wine remains harmonious and food-friendly. With its dry profile, this Sancerre Rouge is an excellent companion for a variety of dishes, from roasted poultry to earthy mushroom risotto, making it an inviting choice for any occasion.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
