Jean Max Roger Cuvée Les Caillottes, 2023

Dense and Well-Balanced Sancerre

This blend of grapes from plots in the villages of AmIgny, Sancerre and Vinon fully expresses the stony calcareous “caillottes” terroir it hails from. Fruity freshness, finesse, vivacity and minerality characterise this wine. It is expressive, combining notes typical of the varietal (rhubarb, broom), floral (hawthorn) and fruit (grapefruit, lemon). Starts off bold on the palate offering dense structure and well-balanced acidity with lemony accents.

• 100% Sauvignon Blanc

Cellaring: Drink now to 2032
