Winemaking
Insolite is our special reserve wine created from a unique vinification process. First, we carefully select grapes from Sancerre’s chalkiest limestone soils then conduct maceration. (skin-contact) at temperature close to 0°C (32°F). The winemaker’s art draws out the extraordinary flavours and and aromas of the grapes and terroir of Sancerre.
Very good evolution after one year.
Light filtration
Nose
Powerful nose with aromatic qualities developing in the following months.
Palate
The resulting must yields a wine that is richer and longer on the palate. Very long on the palate. Very good evolution after several months.
Appearance
Clear, brilliant pale gold hue.
Food Pairing
Sancerre Insolite makes an excellent aperitif and a wonderful accompaniment to fish and shellfish. Well matured vintages will pair well with foie gras.
