Red, Rose and White Wines from Sancerre
Sancerre is a region located in the eastern part of France. It is one of Loire valley where grapes grown and wine are produced. The region has cool climate and chalky soils. Until the late 19th century, Pinot Noir grape is the main grape product in Sancerre. Red wine from Pinot Noir grape is commonly produced.
In the late 19th century, killer bugs plagued the vineyards. These bugs were known to inject their poisonous saliva in grapevines that intended to kill the grapes and devastate the vineyards. The vineyard crisis was called phylloxera. After the devastation, locals replanted grapes in the form of Sauvignon Blanc.
Sauvignon Blanc became the ideal choice of grapes as it works well with Sancerre’s cool climate. The grape grew popular and white wine is produced thereafter. Now, Sancerre produces red and rose wine from Pinot Noir and white wine from Sauvignon Blanc.

From the caillottes soil type.
A Sancerre fermented and aged in amphorae, straw-colored, with full aromas and a beautiful complexity: grapefruit, honeysuckle, orange blossom and a pinch of curry. A fine sweetness coats an expressive, dynamic and juicy mouth, with a zesty accent. Complete, persistent, its place is at the table, on fish with fennel for example.
A pure expression of Sancerre’s classic terroir. Grown on the appellation’s prized Caillottes soils — shallow, stony limestone mixed with gravel — this Sauvignon Blanc delivers exceptional elegance and vibrancy. The well-draining stones promote deep rooting and early ripening, yielding a wine with bright aromatics of citrus, white peach, fresh herbs, and wet stone. Crisp, lively acidity and a refined, mineral-driven finish make this the quintessential Sancerre — refreshing, aromatic, and perfectly balanced. Ideal as an aperitif or with shellfish, goat cheese, and fresh seafood.
Only 1000 bottles produced.
A typical Sancerre with citrus, honey, and flint notes, supple and fragrant. The palate is fresh, with grapefruit and lemon flavors and a pleasant minerality throughout.

Pair with grilled fish with lemon sauce, caesar salad with chicken as well during the spring or summer time.

Thomas Sancerre Rose is made from 100% Pinot Noir.
Vines are 20-55 years old.
Terroir (soil type) is a blend of "Caillottes" and "Terre Blanche".
Everything is machine harvested (which means it is 100% destemmed).
50% Direct press + 50% Saignée (bled) with 12-24 hours of skin contact maceration.
The alcoholic fermentation is done in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.
Right before bottling, the wine is fined with Bentonite (very light filtration with oenologic clay).
Tasting Notes:
Light, bright pink. Redcurrant, strawberry and chalk on the nose, with a touch of singed orange gaining strength with air. Dusty red fruit and citrus flavors are braced by tangy minerality, which adds lift and cut. Uncompromising in the best way, finishing with excellent clarity and echoes of lemon and orange zest.
Food pairings:
This is a very versatile wine. You can have it on its own in the summer time as an apéritif. But it is also excellent with Hors d'Oeuvres and terrines. It will compliment any white meat dish and poultry. You can also enjoy it with salmon or exotic food (slightly spicy sushi).

Luigi Baudana Barolo Baudana is made from 100 percent Nebbiolo.
A deep red in the glass introduces aromas of pure cherries and plums accented with spice, graphite, eucalyptus and licorice. Warm and dry character with firm tannins balanced by a fresh and gentle acidity. A unique soil composition with blue clay translates in a wine with a powerful elegance.
Review:
New leather, forest floor and woodland berry aromas come to the forefront along with a whiff of blue flower. It's opens smooth and savory but its true structure shows up midpalate, delivering juicy Morello cherry, licorice and hazelnut framed against a backbone of fresh acidity and tightly-wound, fine-grained tannins. Drink 2026–2036. Kerin O’Keefe

Maranones 30.000 Maravedies Vinos de Madrid Sierra Gredos is made from 90% Garnacha and 10% local grape varietals called Morenillo (Morate).
“The first of our red wines would be 30,000 maravedíes, which is our Comarca wine, a regional wine, village wine.
30,000 maravedíes is the coming together of all soils, orientations, dominantly Garnacha at 90 percent with a remaining 10 percent of local grapes.
The name also reflects the union between history, the winery, the structure and the place. Álvaro de Luna paid 30,000 maravedíes to buy the whole region from the monks who fostered the cultivation of the vine. It is a historical name. It refers to what was paid for the Valley and pays homage to the Valley. It also evokes what the monks had developed. This history is part of our heritage and we continue it.
This village wine wants to tell you the whole history of the Valley. At the end it delivers a structure tending towards the mineral, the floral, length, fruitiness and ease of drinking.”
30-70 year-old vines produce a vibrant, fresh wine that boasts juicy red berry, wild herb, flower and balsamic flavors with hints of sweet spice. Smooth tannins provide finesse and longevity.
