Sancerre Comte Lafond, 0.75
Count Lafond is the ancestor of Baron Patrick de Ladoucette and was the first to purchase vineyards in the Loire Valley in the 18th century. Count Lafond had huge ambitions for expanding winemaking and was a native of Burgundy, but soon acquired vineyards in Sancerre. Baron Patrick de Ladoucette continues this passion and development.
The vines are 25 to 35 years old, and the subsoil is composed of a combination of clay, limestone, and silica.
After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine ages on the lees for 3 to 6 months. The wine is deliberately not aged in oak barrels to preserve its pure and natural character.
A beautiful pale gold color, this wine is complex, rich, vibrant, and elegant. The aroma reveals citrus fruits, summer fruits, honey notes, and floral hints. The taste is fruity, with exotic fruits in delicate harmony with almond and pear. The finish is mineral and long, with notes of very ripe lemon.
