Lucien Crochet La Croix du Roy Sancerre Rouge 2020

Most people know Sancerre for its whites, this is the reminder that the region's Pinot Noir deserves equal attention. 100% Pinot Noir from a single south-facing parcel from one of the appellation's top villages, and among the most serious red Sancerres made. Cherry, cranberry, and earth with bright red fruit and fine minerality. Velvety and airy on the palate, finishing warm and long with violet and praline. Serve slightly cool.
