GEOLOGY: Our Sancerre Red is a pure expression of the "Terres Blanches" (white lands) of Sainte-Gemme-en-Sancerrois. From a vineyard shaped by the major geological faults of Sancerre and Thauvenay, this wine draws its identity from alternating clayey marls and soft KIMMERIDGIAN limestone. This specific terroir, recognized as "cold" due to its altitude and clay density, allows for a progressive ripening of the berries. The result? A balanced red wine, driven by mineral freshness and an elegant structure.

"Another lovely red Sancerre produced by Domaine de Rome. Light, airy, and spring-like, this wine is truly delightful with notes of wild berries dusted with a pinch of spice and a drop of blood orange. On the palate, it is silky and delicate. A must-discover!"
