Sancerre is famous for its Sauvignon Blanc-based steely whites but they also have a long tradition of growing Pinot Noir for both rosé and reds- from a good producer red Sancerre is usually better than Burgundy at the same price. The flinty limestone soil here is perfect for Pinot Noir and this has bright cherry and red fruit aromas, a sleek mineral core and perfectly poised balance of fruit, acidity and structure.
