Bernard Fleuriet & Fils - Sancerre - La Baronne blanc

BIODYNAMICS

Key words: Roundness / Boldness / Delicacy

Wine: The Baroness is THE cuvée high-end white from Domaine Fleuriet! Vintage after vintage, the quality of this ample, rich and intense Sauvignon endures and impresses. Aged in oak barrels to bring roundness, power and fat in the mouth, this bottle offers the taster gourmand notes of vanilla, butter and toast. The fruit is of course not to be outdone with beautiful aromas of peach, apricot and a hint of citrus . The set combines wonderfully, creating this cuvée coup de coeur that will go perfectly with poultry or even a scallop risotto. Succulent!

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-naturedness and an extraordinary sense of hospitality, the two brothers and their father produce magnificent wines in which the terroir expresses itself 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 the reds and rosés. The estate has been certified in Organic Agriculture since 2016 and Demeter (biodynamic) since 2021. The vinification is done with the minimum possible intervention in order to let the terroir express itself (indigenous yeasts, minimal use of sulphur, etc.). The estate's range is varied and all the cuvées have their own identity. The only common point: the quality of the wines!
