Description
The Comte Lafond Grande Cuvée was developed by Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, known to critics as the King of the Loire Valley, for the peaks of qualitative excellence achieved for wines belonging to this wine region. We are particularly in the denomination of Sancerre, comprising the villages Bué, Chadoux, Chavignol and Verdigny where vineyards with an age ranging from 25 to 35 years reside, planted on clay, limestone and silica soils.
The cellar is built in such a way as to allow the transfer of grapes only by gravity. The must remains in fermentation for a period ranging from 6 to 8 weeks. Stop for a few months in steel on its lees before being bottled.
In the glass it has a bright straw yellow colour. The nose senses delicate aromas of white flowers and black currant, which are followed by intense mineral sensations. On the palate it is elegant and complex, with a long, fruity and harmonious finish.
Perfect in combination with molluscs, seafood and goat cheeses.
