HUBERT BROCHARD Sancerre Blanc (was Les Collines Blanches) - Loire Valley 2022/23 Bottle (Sauvignon Blanc)

Description

Since its creation by Aimée and Hubert Brochard in 1900, Domaine Hubert Brochard has been committed from one generation to the next to producing wines representative of the diversity of the Sancerre terroirs. In July 2022, the Bollinger family group bought the Domaine. A new adventure begins, based on a vision: there is not one Sancerre but different Sancerre. It is the richness of the terroirs, the plurality of styles and personalities, the meeting of cultures and know-how that will allow people to (re)discover the subtleties of the appellation. The Brochard team is led by winemaker Rodrigo Zamorano with a precise target: to showcase the unique individuality of these remarkable Terroirs. He has a true passion for Sauvignon Blanc. In order to express all the aromas but also the elegance and the purity of this grape, Rodrigo prevents any chance of oxygen exposure, uses pneumatic presses only, and monitors vinification in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. It can be kept for up to 5 years and is clean, dry and fruity.

Best served at 10C and is the ideal accompaniment to seafood, fish in sauces, certain cheeses, in particular Crottin de Chavignol goat's cheese. Domaine Hubert Brochard Sancerre Les Collines Blanches has fresh and fragrant Sauvignon Blanc fruit with overtones of gooseberries and a bright, refreshing acidity. First class Sancerre.
