Bernard Fleuriet & Fils - Sancerre - Anthocyane rouge 2022

BIODYNAMIC

Key words:  Elegance / Complexity / Depth

The wine: Anthocyane is THE great wine red from the Fleuriet estate! This Pinot noir with character comes from the family's old vines and is a real gem of substance and concentration! Here is indeed a cuvée offering a delicious balance oscillating between intense and deep fruitiness (black cherry, velvety blackberry) as well as elegant aging notes (toast, vanilla, oak). A Sancerre that could easily be confused with a Burgundian pinot noir blind and which will pair ideally with poultry and red meats!

The estate: Located in Menetou-Râtel, just Near Sancerre, the domaine Fleuriet is managed by Bernard, the patriarch, as well as his sons Mathieu and Benoit. With great good nature and an extraordinary sense of welcome, the two brothers and their father produce magnificent wines where the terroir is expressed with great clarity. Covering 30 hectares (mainly in AOC Sancerre but also in AOC Menetou-Salon), Sauvignon reigns supreme here, accompanied by Pinot Noir for reds and rosés. The estate has been certified in Organic Agriculture since 2016 and Demeter (biodynamic) since 2021. Vinification is carried out with the minimum possible intervention in order to let the terroir express itself (native yeasts, minimal use of sulphites, etc.). The estate's range is varied and all the vintages have their own identity. The only thing in common: the quality of the wines!
