Sancerre Domaine Vincent Pinard Vendanges Entières Sancerre, 2023

Domaine Vincent Pinard’s Vendanges Entières is a distinctive Sancerre with a more textural, expressive style than many wines from the appellation. Made in the Loire’s famed Sancerre region, it reflects the domaine’s precision and the character of whole-cluster fermentation, a technique that adds aromatic lift and depth.

Tasting Notes
Expect a bright, youthful wine with a vivid ruby hue and an aromatic profile that leans toward fresh red berries, violets, spice, and a subtle earthy, herbal edge. On the palate, whole-cluster vinification brings a touch of savory complexity and fine structure, balancing juicy red fruit with freshness and grip. The finish is likely to be clean, energetic, and refined, with the potential to develop additional nuance over the next few years.

Production
Produced in Sancerre in the Loire Valley, this wine benefits from the region’s cool-climate conditions and chalky, well-drained soils that help preserve freshness and aromatic detail. The name Vendanges Entières indicates whole-cluster harvesting and fermentation, a method that can enhance perfume, structure, and complexity while adding a more lifted, slightly spicy profile to the wine.

Food & Serving
This style of Sancerre red pairs well with roasted poultry, duck breast, mushroom dishes, charcuterie, and lightly spiced lamb. Serve slightly cool, around 14–16°C, and consider a short decant if drinking young to let the aromatics open up.
