Product information "Sancerre Blanc « Les Confidentielles » - Sancerre "Jadis" 2020"
This cuvée comes from kimmeridgian marls, recognizable for its cluster of comma shaped small fossilized oyster shells shaped like (ostrea virgula), from the famous and well exposed slopes of Chavignol. For this wine, low yields, organic fertilizer only, use of grass cov-er, everything is made to respect the terroir and to obtain the most beautiful grapes.
Winemaking
After pressing, the juice is allowed 2 days of natural clarification by sedimentation. Next, the juice is placed in barrels and tanks. Alcoholic fermentation converts the natural sugars into the wine's soul while the flesh of the grape creates its rich bouquet. Sancerre Jadis is racked and bottled in accordance with the lunar cycle and is sure to charm your palate – but you must first let the wine pass its first Easter holiday.
Wine & food
Sancerre Jadis, a true original, deserves an original cuisine that allies local and exotic tastes, principally fish or white meats that play with salty-sweet associations. For example, filleted chicken breast with honey and rosemary in supreme sauce or "Char Fontaine" with curry and candied oranges. Try a St. Nectaire cheese or an Oka from Quebec with a little honey, warmed in the oven and presented on a slice of fresh peach.
Tasting notes
Its green gold color has some bright and luminous reflects. Its nose is quite expressive and complexe. It evolve all along the tasting. It opens beautifully on exotic fruits, green mango, citrus, honey and a hint of menthol. The mouth is powerful, round and harmo-nious. One can taste fresh grappe but also a refreshing and sharp minerality. It is a particularly long lasting wine.
