2019 Vincent Pinard Sancerre Le Grand Chemarin

The 2019 Sancerre Le Grand Chemarin is a tender and wonderfully elegant style that shows excellent concentration. It remains understated, with fine grip on the finish. The wine has a mouth-coating texture, no doubt due to the limestone soils but also the Pinards’ careful handling. This caresses the mouth with its restrained pear and ripe, apple fruit. It's wonderfully welcoming at the beginning, but the finish is structured. Wherever the wine is in your mouth, it always exudes a sense of balance.
