Sancerre blanc Compte Lafonde

Sancerre Blanc Comte Lafond is a high-quality white wine produced in the Sancerre region in the heart of the Loire Valley in France. This region is famous for its white wines produced mainly from Sauvignon Blanc grapes. The Sancerre area is characterized by a temperate climate and limestone and clay soils, which give the wine a particular minerality and freshness. The vineyards are cultivated on rolling hills that offer excellent sun exposure and good ventilation, ideal conditions for ripening the grapes. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes used for Sancerre Blanc Comte Lafond are harvested by hand when they have reached the right degree of ripeness. After harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and the resulting must is left to ferment at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's freshness and aromaticity. After fermentation, the wine is left to mature on the lees for several months, a process known as "surlie," which helps improve the wine's structure and complexity. During this period, the wine is regularly stirred to promote contact with the yeasts. Sancerre Blanc Comte Lafond is a wine of great elegance and finesse, with aromatic notes of citrus, white flowers and minerals. It is fresh and lively on the palate, with good acidity and a long, lingering finish. It is a wine that pairs perfectly with fish dishes, seafood, poultry and goat cheese.
