Tasting notes

Bright ruby colour introduces a delicate bouquet of red cherries, wild strawberries, and subtle violet notes. The palate reveals characteristic Loire elegance with vibrant red fruit flavors complemented by hints of white pepper and earthy minerality. Light to medium-bodied with refreshing acidity and fine-grained tannins that provide gentle structure. The finish is crisp and pure, echoing red berry notes with a touch of flint and chalky minerality typical of Sancerre's limestone terroir.

About this wine

Henri Bourgeois is one of Sancerre's most respected producers, with deep roots in the Loire Valley's finest terroir. Le Graveron is crafted from Pinot Noir grown on the region's distinctive gravelly soils, which impart a distinctive mineral character and crisp acidity that defines quality Sancerre red. This light-intensity wine showcases red fruit aromatics with subtle peppery notes and a delicate floral character, reflecting both the grape variety and the precise microclimate of its origin.

Sancerre's cool continental climate naturally yields elegant, food-friendly reds with remarkable freshness. Le Graveron exemplifies this style, approachable yet complex, with the structure and refinement expected from one of the Loire's most prestigious appellations. At 12.5% ABV, it drinks with remarkable balance and versatility.

This is an ideal companion to game birds, venison, and duck, while also pairing beautifully with roasted poultry and chicken dishes. Its crisp profile and mineral backbone make it equally compelling as an aperitif wine for discerning palates seeking something beyond the expected.
