WINE DESCRIPTION

Henri Bourgeois Sancerre D'Antan is a premium white wine produced by Domaine Henri Bourgeois, a highly respected winery located in the Sancerre appellation of France. The wine is made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown in the estate's D'Antan vineyard, which benefits from the area's unique terroir, characterized by limestone and clay soils and a continental climate. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including aging in French oak barrels, which adds complexity and depth to the wine. The resulting wine is full-bodied and complex, with notes of citrus, tropical fruit, and a hint of oak, making it an ideal choice for pairing with seafood dishes, roasted chicken, and buttery sauces.
