Betrachten wir diese spezielle Sancerre-Edition, die das Weingut seit der 2022er-Edition als \u201cCalcaire Mosaique\u201d f\u00fchrt. Die Lagen, die diesen charakteristischen Wein hervorbringen, sind vorwiegend gekennzeichnet durch Kalkmerkmale und stammen aus Bereichen wie Les Boucauds, Les Chasseignes und Les Denisottes, bekannt f\u00fcr Terres Blanches und Caillottes. Die Veredelung dieses Weines erfolgt h\u00e4ufig im Edelstahlfass und in einigen F\u00e4llen auch in einem leicht gebrauchten gr\u00f6\u00dferen Holzfass, wodurch er \u00fcber einen Siebenmonatszeitraum attraktiv gereift wird.<\/p>\n
The colouring of this wine is composed of a medium straw yellow with hints of orange. Its bouquet is invitingly creamy, bright and silky - inviting with a well-composed blend of different fruits, including ripe pears, stone fruits, fully ripe lemons and white and green berries, complemented by a hint of exotic carambola. The flavour profile is rounded off by an overtone of white flowers and a hint of broom, based on the undertone of lime and chalk, mixed with lichen and herbs.<\/p>\n
For the palate, this Sancerre offers an opulent experience with striking extraction, rich material and plenty of juice. While Domaine Vacheron's beginner Sancerre may seem more like a soprano, this edition presents more like a baritone. It offers a generous wine in the glass, characterised by yellow rather than green fruit. An impressive achievement by St\u00e9phane Riffault, who gives this Mosaique Calcaire a remarkable freshness, finesse and balance, giving it a unique identity.<\/p>\n
Suitable food recommendations include: raw tuna on a bed of avocado cream with lemon olive oil, peppery grilled chicken served with artichoke hearts and lemon dressing, or sole slow-roasted in a pot with a butter and lemon sauce, and a salad of red radicchio and fennel.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
