WINEMAKER NOTES:
The Clos du Roc stems from the famous and ancient Saint-Satur Abbaye circa 1450. Located on a steep south facing flinty hill, it is one of the most beautiful plots of the Sancerre appellation. The vines get the maximum sunlight and grow sheltered from the cold winds, protected by the forest ‘Bois de Charne’ located just above the vineyard.
TASTING NOTES:
This single-vineyard wine comes from a parcel once farmed by the monks of Saint-Satur Abbey. The richly textured wine is full of ripe citrus, with a mineral-driven texture. Crisp and still young, it will be best from late 2022.
