To the southwest of the town of Sancerre, lies the tiny commune of Bué. Here you find François Crochet single handedly managing his 10 hectares. Doing much of the work in the vineyards himself, he is committed to hand harvesting to help maintain the quality of the resulting wine. Unable to make enough wine to keep pace with demand these wines are some of the most precise and refined Sancerres you will ever get to taste. The flavors of this rose are bold, focusing on dark cherry, watermelon, and macerated wild red berry fruit with a nice mineral edge and just a tiny touch of freshening tannins. The balance of fruit, acidity, texture and minerality is pretty much perfect. Pale Salmon pink colour, very fine notes of fresh red fruits on the nose which is continued on the well balanced palate. Certified organic, practicing biodynamic. 100% Pinot Noir. Average vine age of twenty years, planted on clay and chalky soils. Fruit is hand-harvested, then whole-cluster pressed. Fermentation and aging in stainless steel for six months.
