WINE DESCRIPTION

Lucien Crochet La Croix du Roy Sancerre Blanc is a premium white wine produced by Lucien Crochet, a renowned winemaker from the Sancerre appellation in the Loire Valley, France. The wine is made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown in the La Croix du Roy vineyard, which is known for its limestone and clay soils that impart a unique minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and purity of the fruit. The resulting wine is crisp, elegant, and aromatic, with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a subtle hint of minerality. It is a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light dishes.
