This very deep coloured Sancerre Rouge is very typical of the very hot 2003 vintage. Powerful, concentrated and mouthfilling with rich pruney and figgy fruit, this is atypical of a Loire Pinot Noir – more reminiscent of a wine from further south in France. Although not typical, well made red Sancerre is delicious, incidentally another well-made wine by Gilles Crochet. The 2003 is drinking well now but I'm sure you could keep it for at least another four or five years. Vinve la difference!
