Our Price
Le Pavillon du Roy's use of stainless steel vessels in their cellars helps retain Sauvignon Blanc's spirited grapefruit zest and oyster shell aromas for their 2021 Sancerre. On the palate, its dry and crisp qualities make it a natural partner for baked haddock or jambalaya. This lovely Loire Valley white wine is available at the reduced price of $20 a bottle 'til sold out!

Le Pavillon du Roy Sancerre Blanc

Technical Information
Grape Variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Acreage: 14 hectares
Terroir: Clay and limestone
Yield: 60 hl per hectare

Vinification
Traditional, in stainless steel tanks. Bladder press grape pressing and reception of the must in the tanks by gravity. Settling of the must 24-36 hours before fermentation. Slow alcoholic fermentation only is done in order to preserve the aromatic qualities. Racking starts over three months later. Clarification and light filtration before bottling at the estate.

Tasting Commentary
Pale, lemon green color, with pronounced citrus intensity. Our white wines go extremely well with fish, shellfish, and other seafood. They are perfect, combined with most cheeses, especially the famous Crottin de Chavignol or as an aperitif. To have it show optimally, our white Sancerre must be served at 8-10 degrees C maximum. Aging potential is about five years.
