Tasting Notes
This exceptional cuvée, presented in an elegant six-bottle wooden case, is accompanied by fragments of limestone rock sourced directly from the estate, an authentic touch that reflects its unique terroir. The wine is distinguished by its crystal-clear clarity and remarkable brilliance. On the nose, it offers a rich, complex palette of aromas, dominated by minerality and subtle citrus notes. On the palate, it progressively reveals all its depth and energy, underpinned by perfectly controlled acidity that lends freshness, suppleness and roundness to this exceptional Sancerre.

Vinification and Aging
Insolite, their special cuvée, is the result of an innovative and meticulous winemaking process. The grapes, carefully selected from Sancerre's most characteristic limestone soils, are then subjected to a delicate maceration lasting around 20 hours at a controlled temperature of 0°C (32°F). This unique process gives the wine remarkable structure and finesse, with a capacity for evolution that fully develops after one year.
