Baron de Ladoucette Comte Lafond Sancerre AOC 0,75 ℓ

Comte Lafond, ancestor of Baron Patrick de Ladoucette, was the first to purchase the vineyards of the Loire in the 18th century. Originally from Burgundy, he decided to diversify the viticultural properties. From the right bank of the Loire, on which the Pouilly vineyards are located, he expanded his possessions to the left bank, in the Sancerre region, where he gave birth to great labels among which the white berried ones certainly stand out. Comte Lafond bears the founder's name aloft. Produced only from Sauvignon Blanc grapes, it is the result of a slow vinification, for a period of at least 10 weeks, carried out at a low temperature in order to preserve the freshness and floral aromas that characterize this wine. It remains to refine a few months in steel before being bottled. It has a pale and limpid golden yellow color. Floral components predominate on the nose, declining in hawthorn and mulberry flowers, with slight hints of elderberry and chalk. The taste is a fresh, nervous, structured wine with a floral correspondence. It closes on a pleasantly harmonious finish. Recommended in the company of goat cheeses, seafood risotto and steamed shellfish.
