Description

The Sancerre Red is obtained from the Pinot Noir grape variety, which we cultivate with the greatest of care and attention. The grapes are therefore hand-selected and undergo cold pre-fermentation maceration for 3 days, spending an average length of time in the tank. Our Sancerre Red is aged for 6 months in oak barrels previously used for 1 to 6 vintages.

This red has delicate sweet fruit. The nose has an almost floral character, and the palate displays sweet raspberry fruit, medium body, soft tannin and gentle acid. This wine is sure to appeal if you are a fan of elegant Burgundy.

Arnaud et Stephanie Dezat

In the Dezat family, the vine is in the blood, with winegrower ancestors dating back to the 15th century! In 1948, Stéphanie and Arnaud's grandfather André took over the family business. He became a key figure in Sancerre, greatly contributing to the reputation of the appellation. His two sons took up the torch in the 1970s, modernizing and expanding the estate, acquiring vines in AOC Pouilly Fumé, then in AOC Menetou-Salon. In 2020 Stéphanie and Arnaud founded a new estate.

Loire Valley

The Loire Valley in France is a prestigious wine region renowned for its diverse wines and picturesque landscapes. Stretching along the Loire River, it benefits from a varied climate and a range of soil types, ideal for viticulture. It is particularly famous for its white wines, including the crisp and mineral-rich Sauvignon Blanc from Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, and the aromatic Chenin Blanc from Vouvray and Saumur. The area also produces excellent reds, such as the light and fruity Cabernet Franc from Chinon and Bourgueil. Rosé and sparkling wines, like Crémant de Loire, add to the diversity of the region. With its rich winemaking heritage, varied terroirs, and high-quality wines, the Loire Valley offers an exceptional experience for wine enthusiasts seeking both classic and innovative wines.
