Domaine Hippolyte Reverdy Sancerre Rouge 2022

Domaine Hippolyte Reverdy Sancerre Rouge 2022 is a refined and distinctly Loire-style Pinot Noir, showing the elegance and freshness that have made Sancerre reds so quietly sought after. While Pinot Noir represents only a small share of Sancerre production, Reverdy has long given it pride of place, crafting a wine that balances purity, finesse, and immediate drinking pleasure with a nod to the region’s history of producing understated, classically styled reds.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it offers a bright, polished ruby color and a lifted bouquet of red berries—strawberry, raspberry, and cherry—alongside floral notes, graphite, and a subtle mineral edge. The aroma is clean and expressive, opening beautifully with time in the glass. The palate is silky, fresh, and vibrant, with juicy berry fruit, a touch of spice, and a crisp line of acidity that keeps everything lively and precise. Tannins are present but fine and fresh, giving the wine structure without weight. It is approachable now for its charm and clarity, but can also develop gracefully over the next few years, gaining a little more complexity and softness.

Production
The grapes come from around 3 hectares of 30-year-old vines planted on flint, limestone, and clay soils around Verdigny, giving the wine its characteristic tension and mineral backbone. The fruit is vinified and aged in 400-liter barrels, with malolactic fermentation and around one year of maturation to soften the texture while preserving the brightness and delicacy of the Pinot Noir.

Food & Serving
This is a versatile red for dishes that complement freshness and finesse, such as roast chicken, duck breast, charcuterie, grilled salmon, mushroom dishes, or lightly seasoned vegetable plates. Serve slightly cool, ideally around 14–16°C, and consider a short decant if serving young to help the aromas open up.

Producer
Domaine Hippolyte Reverdy is a long-established family producer in Sancerre, known for wines that express the Loire’s precision and regional character with remarkable consistency. The domaine has earned a strong reputation for both its whites and its comparatively rare reds, and its Pinot Noir is especially valued for its clarity, balance, and authentic expression of Sancerre terroir.
