Henri Bourgeois Sancerre Blanc ES 56 2022

This wine with its gun-flint aromas and spicy bouquet is subtly wooded, rich in fruit, full-bodied, well balanced, and very reminiscent of the Sauvignon flower and grape. The richness and intensity of the flavor linger long and harmoniously on the palate. This prestigious selection has excellent bottle maturation potential and will continue to evolve for 10 to 12 years.

When arriving at the winery, the grapes are directly pressed. After a settling at cold temperature, a portion of the wine is fermented in thermoregulated stainless steel tanks and the other portion in French oak barrels from the famous Tronçais forest. “ES-56” is patiently aged for 7–8 months on its fine lees in oak barrel with periodic hand stirring of the lees (“bâtonnage” in French), before bottling.
