Static racking of the must, electronic thermo-regulated fermentation (16-20û C) in stainless steel tanks for a period of 3 weeks. No malolactic fermentation. Maturing on fine lees. Colour: clear golden green reflections. Nose: well developed aromas of blackcurrant evolving towards fruit cordial after a while in the glass. Palate: full and round at first followed by a sensation of crispness. A touch of anise lingering. This wine has particularly well-kept its young character. Serve between 8-10û C with fish and seafood.

Electronic thermo-regulated fermentation in stainless steel tanks for a period of 3 weeks. No malolactic fermentation. Maturation on fine lees. Situated in the small village of Verdigny in the Sancerre region, the Fournier family has been growing wine for many generations. The estate has grown from 5 hectares in 1950 to almost 30 hectares today, divided over the appellations of Menetou Salon, Pouilly-Fume and Sancerre. The improvements made in vinification techniques and the concern over quality result in well-bound wines of great diversity. Colour: brilliant, sustained salmon pink. Nose: discreet, recalling ripe cherry and a slight note of toast. Palate: fresh and crisp, with an after taste of lemon and butter aromas. Serve between 10-12û C with oriental dishes. (12 x 75 cl)
Taste : Color : Clear golden green reflections. Nose : Discreet aromas, not quite opened, with a hint of ripe orange. Palate : A taste of fruits drops and lemon peel. Will become smoother with time. (12 x 75 cl)
