Neveu Sancerre Vieilles Vignes Pierre Francois Xavier
Vintage: | 2020 |
---|---|
Description: | Assembled in great years from the Neveu familys best parcels around Verdigny, Chavignol, and Sancerrre, PFXas it is affectionately known by the familyis raised in oak rather than stainless steel (the former being the historical norm in Sancerre). The three principal terroirs of Sancerre are incorporated: terres blanches, silex, and caillottes. Caillottes are the small, sharp limestone rocks that litter the surface of many Sancerre vineyards, including the Neveu familys largest vineyard, Les Embouffants. The oak adds a grain and level of class and backbone that raises this cuve a step above the domaines classic Sancerre bottling. PFX ages more slowly and gracefully than most Sancerres, and it makes a great cellar diversification play. Dixon Brooke, Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant |
