Domaine de la Villaudière Sancerre Rouge 2022
Domaine de la Villaudière is surrounded by vineyards overlooking the famous Loire village of Verdigny, offering stunning views of the famous Sancerre hill. Wine flows in the veins of four generations of the Reverdy family estate owners. Today, Jean-Marie Reverdy manages the flourishing Domaine de la Villaudière with his wife, Catherine, and their sons, Guillaume and Baptiste. The family is inspired by the same values as their ancestors: attachment to the Loire Valley, an instinctive passion for terroirs, and an innate respect for people and work.
The domaines cellars are located in the middle of the vines, with the vineyard planted to 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Pinot Noir, spread over a mosaic of 80 plots. This distribution allows the vines to express themselves fully on soils of marl “Terres Blanches”, limestone “Caillottes” and flint. In sustainable cultivation for several years, the estate has been certified High Environmental Value Level 3 since 2020. Their approach, a combination of authenticity and modernity, is constantly moving towards an ever more sustainable and eco-friendly type of viticulture.
Tasting notes
With a strong garnet hue with crimson highlights, this wine opens with a bouquet which is a delectable blend of ripe red fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry). Supple on entry, with noticeable maturing tannins on the finish, the wine confirms the elegance of this light, fruity Sancerre on the palate.
