Bernard Fleuriet & Fils - Menetou-Salon blanc 2022

BIODYNAMIC

Key words: Minerality / Fruits / Pleasure

The wine: This white Menetou-Salon from the Fleuriet vineyard expresses all the beauty of the grape variety sauvignon: delicious notes of peach, pear and citrus delight us and are accompanied by a suave floral touch (honeysuckle). A salivating minerality also shines through, coupled with a body that is both lively and round. An excellent vintage which is great as an aperitif but that can also be paired with seafood or fish, for a moment of pleasure and sharing.

The estate: Located in Menetou-Râtel, just next to Sancerre, the domaine Fleuriet iLocated in Menetou-Râtel, right next to Sancerre, the Fleuriet estate is managed by Mathieu and Benoit along with their father, Bernard. With their great nature and an extraordinary sense of hospitality, the two brothers and their father produce magnificent wines where the terroir is expressed with great clarity. Covering 30 hectares (mainly in the Sancerre AOC but also in Menetou-Salon), the Sauvignon grape is here in the spotlight and accompanied by a bit of Pinot noir. The estate has been certified in Organic Agriculture since 2016 and Demeter (biodynamic) since 2021. The vinifications are done with the minimum possible intervention in order to let the terroir express itself (indigenous yeasts, minimal use of sulfur, etc.). The range of the estate is varied and all the vintages have their own identity. The only thing in common: the quality of the wines!
