A lovely Sancerre, faultless, very aromatic, with exotic notes. On the palate, Quarterons is lively and balanced, a powerful wine with great minerality, notes of grapefruit, and a long, delicate finish. Some gas may remain in the bottle.
Sauvignon from a 5-ha parcel planted on a clay-limestone soil. The vines are 30 years old, grown biodynamically (the estate is certified organic and biodynamic by DEMETER) and the yields around 30-35 hl/ha. As for the vinification: 3 months of fermentation, including malolactic fermentation, all with natural yeasts. No sulphur is added during either vinification or maturation. Matured 18 months in vats on its fine lees, only 1 g/hl at bottling.
