Vincent Pinard Grand Chemarin Sancerre 2016

At this 17-hectare family property, Vincent Pinard and his sons Florent and Clément adopted an approach involving little intervention as possible. No chemicals are used and much of the labour is done manually, including harvest. Grand Chemarin is made from a parcel selection of the Bué village. With full south exposure, the vines planted in 1961 and 1971 offer a majestic wine where the fruity, mineral and slightly toasted mouth is of surgical precision. As «La Revue du vin de France» once said: «Welcome to Sauvignon paradise!».
