2023 Brother Pinard Sancerre Echoes

This first wine comes from the vines of their cousin Jean-Vincent Pinard in the village of Amigny which is located between Bué and Chavignol. The vineyard is worked organically (not yet certified). Vinification for this wine is similar to that of Florès, using their own natural yeast, ageing in large neutral wooden vats for 6 months, minimal sulphur during élevage (volcanic sulphur, handmade by the Pinards).

Bottled without fining in April 2024 it shows great finesse and is deliciously approachable now with an intriguing note of tangerine and a hint of phenolics making for a beautifully structured Sancerre.
