WINE DESCRIPTION
Jean-Max Roger La Côte de Bué Sancerre is a highly sought-after wine that showcases the expertise of its producer. Hailing from the prestigious Sancerre appellation in France, this wine is crafted from grapes grown in the renowned La Côte de Bué vineyard – a vineyard that took 25 years to restore and replant. The vineyard's unique features, such as its limestone-rich soil and southeast facing and steep slopes, contribute to the wine's exceptional quality. With meticulous winemaking techniques, this wine embodies a style that is elegant, vibrant, and expressive. Its distinct character is characterized by refreshing acidity, vibrant citrus flavors, and a subtle minerality.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This wine is a delightful expression of Sancerre shimmering in the glass with a pale, bright straw color with green and gold reflections.The first nose is very complex offering a melange of freshly cut apples, lemon zest, cut grass alongside floral scents as well as spicy, vanilla and ginger notes. The palate is driven by the refreshing acidity which itself is enveloped by the herbaceous and orchard fruit flavors that linger on the persistent finish.
