Domaine R&D Rimbault – Sancerre Red
Sancerre AOC
The famed Sancerre AOC offers some of the best expression of Sauvignon-Blanc in France. The Raimbault Family has been producing wine in Sancerre for 10 Generations!
Grape Variety:
100% Pinot Noir
Vineyard:
The Raimbault family has been growing vines since the mid-17th century. The combination of experience, technique and environment allows us to produce high quality wines while respecting the typicality of each vintage. The estate is located in the heart of the vineyards of Sancerre.
Winemaking:
The grapes come from a very steep little plot of vines embedded between Ampuis and Saint-Cyrsur-le-Rhône. The southern orientation, a gentle wine making, a maturation that takes its time and bottling without filtering… Total respect is given to this wine and its terroir.
Tasting Note:
Bright rubis color. Aromatic nose of red fruits, cherries and spices. A medium body palate with a good balance between structure and acidity, delicate cherry character with gentle finish.
Food pairing:
We like it with truffles and tagliatelle, a farm chicken or soft rind cow’s cheeses like Brie or Camambert. It will keep up to 15 years without losing its balance.
