Our Take: Fresh and fragrant, with wild strawberry, raspberry and cherry backed by subtle earthy notes and a touch of spice. The palate is supple and bright, with fine-grained tannins and just enough structure to give the fruit some depth. A touch of savory earth carries through the finish, making this an elegant, approachable Loire Valley Pinot Noir that works just as well at the table as on its own.

Importer:
Since 1991, the Domaine Fleuriet has developed its own vineyards on 20 ha of sloping and fallow land belonging to the Sancerre appellation. The estate is representative of the typicity and diversity of the Sancerre region and the vines are present on the three great Sancerre terroirs (flint, caillottes and white earth).

Made from Pinot Noir grapes, this wine comes only from large clay-limestone soils which give it all its fruitiness and finesse. With 50% of its production in oak barrels, it has toasted and sustained notes as well as aromas of red fruits.
