Description
Lucien Raimbault Pineau Exception Sancerre 2022Sancerre from vines planted on two types of soils: white soils and clots. We harvest when the maturity of the grapes is optimum. The harvest is then rapidly conducted to the press, where the extraction of the must is done with slowness and softness (pneumatic press). The juice is then placed in a thermo-regulated tank to constantly monitor and control a fermentation at low temperature (14 to 16 degrees). Very long and very sweet, this type of fermentation preserves maximum aromas. After aging on fine lees, each cuvée is assembled with meticulousness to obtain an excellent quality and a homogeneity of the whole production. Mouth feel is rich and round. Ideal as an aperitif. Pairs well with starters, seafood, and goat cheese.Domaine Raimbault-Pineau situated at the heart of the village of Sury-en Vaux (5 km from Sancerre) on a terroir of good exposure and characteristic of cretaceous and Jurassic formed between 100 to 150 million yearsAt the head of the Domaine, Sonia Raimbault, supported by her children, each bringing their personal touch and their own feelings to our wines, while ensuring that we perpetuate a wine-growing tradition passed down in our family of Sancerrois winegrowers for more than four centuries, i.e. 13 generations.
