It’s not just a rosé, but Sancerre rosé from one of the most prominent producers in the area, Domaine Vacheron, hand-harvested and made with certified organic and biodynamic practices. The domaine is just a few minutes from the town of Sancerre’s center and is one of the great, pioneering estates from the area. Starting with only 5 hectares in 1968 procured by Jean-Louis Vacheron, today the family’s holdings span 43 hectares of some of the finest sites in the Loire Valley.
 
This wine comes entirely from the family’s estate vineyards, and while they have long been considered one of the best Sancerre Blanc producers, their underground-famed Pinot Noir rosé is just as astounding, gripping, and intense. Truth be told, this is a rosé of Pinot Noir in a category all its own, and we are beside ourselves anytime we can get our hands on even a few bottles.

With its lively balance of fruit and mineral flavors, this is utterly refreshing and vivacious – an intricate wine with notes of orange blossoms, blood orange, crushed raspberries, wet chalk, and a hint of Maldon sea salt and white pepper.
 
An all-in-all delight to drink – and worthy of your time, attention, and investment for one of the best rosés of all time.

About The Producer

Great-grandfather Maurice Vacheron tended a few vines back when Sancerre was but a stop on a village road. His son, Jean, was the first of the family to specialize in producing wine, paying particular attention to the influence of terroir on Sauvignon Blanc. Jean's sons, Denis and Jean-Louis, solidified the Vacheron name in Sancerre, showcasing the family's talent with Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. Today, Denis' son, Jean-Laurent, and Jean-Louis' son, Jean-Dominique, have taken the estate to a whole new level of quality, championing biodynamic viticulture and selecting singular vineyard parcels that the family has observed for generations (and planted with their own hands) to bottle as single-vineyard wines, to showcase the heights that Sancerre can reach. 'Les Romains' was one of the domaines first single vineyard bottlings. The vineyard is made up of pure flint soils, rich in fossilized material that contributes minerality and smokiness to the wine.
