2019 Vincent Pinard - Sancerre Rouge 'Narpi' (750ml)
Price: $99.00
In Mixed Case: $89.10
The Pinard family have been making wine in Sancerre since the 16th century, and the domaine in Bué is in great form these days under the guidance of young brothers Florent and Clément. This Pinot Noir is an excellent example of what a Sancerre rouge can be: racy and lean, ageworthy, and always fresh.
Their Pinot Noir is grown on clay-limestone soil with an Oxfordian and Kimmeridgian limestone subsoil. With 50+ year old vines and low yields, these reds are powerful but balanced, and have the capacity for a long life in the cellar.
Importer: "The Pinards have been passing down winemaking techniques for generations, with the goal of always creating the most precise, pure, and fine wines possible. While many wineries are reverting to these natural winemaking practices, the Pinards have been implementing these methods for hundreds of years on their 17 hectares. They do everything as naturally as possible; intervene as little as feasible, limit yields, harvest by hand, and do not use herbicides, insecticides or anti-rot treatments. They believe that if the fruit is healthy, there is no need to use artificial products during the vinification process. And as to the top vignerons of Burgundy, should they visit Sancerre, there is one essential domaine that they visit...Vincent Pinard!"
