Region
This beautiful region is situated 200Km south of Paris and extends west along the high reaches of the Loire River. This is a cold climate region making top quality wines from Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir and includes the following famous villages; Sancerre, Pouilly Sur Loire, Quincy and Menetou-Salon. The soils have a high percentage of flint and limestone, and this results in crisp, aromatic whites and perfumed, elegant rose and reds. Littered with artisan producers, the best single Domaine wines are made in small quantities and are of top quality.
Producer
Domaine Bailly-Reverdy is situated in the village of Bué, just 5km from Sancerre. Established in 1952 by Bernard Bailly and his wife Marie-Thérèse Reverdy. The winery is still family run and when Bernard`s youngest son Franck joined the family business in 1991, he was the driving force behind making the vine growing process more environmentally friendly. Today the vineyard is run by Bernard and Marie-Therese`s grandson, Aurelien.
Tasting Notes
Bailly-Reverdy have been farming sustainably since 1991, and their Sancerre Rose is no exception to the high quality wines they`ve been producing ever since. Hand-harvested and sorted, the wine is aged for 4 months in stainless steel tanks to preserve and promote the vibrant fruit profile of the wine. Lively and alluring notes of raspberry, strawberry and redcurrant on the nose; the palate shows a powerful continuation of the red fruit profile. A perfect balance between richness and delicacy, the finish has an abundance of freshness and elegance that lingers.
Food
Pairs perfectly with fresh salads with goats` cheese, shellfish and seafood, charcuterie and a multitude of light pasta dishes.
