These wines are made in the saignee (bleeding) method, bringing the Pinot Noir grapes in immediately from picking and then bleeding some of the juice from the grapes after they’ve spent a few hours in contact with skins and seeds. This gives it the full aromatic fireworks show, as well as that signature, gorgeous pale salmon color that we see in Sancerre.
Reverdy Ducroux may have one of the biggest advantages of all. Apart from being in the midst of their 14th generation of Ducroux winemakers with Laurent, they also have parcels right near the town of Verdigny – incredibly prime real estate with rolling hilltops chalk full of rock Kimmeridigian limestone soils, giving a complexity and mineral component to the wines that most others can’t replicate.
It’s why since the 1970’s many of these wines have found a place on wine lists throughout the French Michelin star dining scene, and also why it’s so dang hard to get our hands on any.
But for the one time this year where whatever is left of the wine is released to the masses, I made sure that we came first – securing 30 cases of one of the classiest pink wines anywhere in the world. It’s super pure, with bright citrus notes, a round fleshy mouthfeel, cherry, raspberry and lemon flavors with tremendous balance and a fantastic minerally finish.

The just released 2023 Crochet Sancerre Rosé is drawn from the high elevations of Janine and Teddy Crochet’s Pinot Noir vines in the village of Bué. The conditions are perfect for crisp, delicious Sancerre Rosé. Salmon-pink in color with a pretty nose featuring aromas of roses, orange peel and Bing cherry notes. This is as well-balanced as always with terrific fruit flavors of citrus and red berries with racy a high-toned finish.

There’s a consistency to Pierre Sparr wines that consumers just know they can count on throughout the entire portfolio. The wines deliver aromatics, elegance, clean fruit and are packed with vibrancy. They also happen to be extremely food-friendly, especially in the past few vintages where yields were down but quality rose to an all-time high. This is a bone-dry beauty with layers of citrus fruits, framed by wet stone and mineral character that adds dimension.
From the famous family behind Peyrassol, comes a new Cotes du Provence smash hit. The wine is pale pink in color with notes of small wild berries on the nose complemented by a hint of juniper. This spiciness lends weight to the liveliness on the palate reminiscent of exotic citrus fruits, creating a crisp, harmonious and refreshing ensemble. Spice lingers on the palate for a full and round finish.
The wine is so dang good, nearly every single one of my staff tried to take the sample bottle home when it was brought into the restaurant. It’s just so juicy, lively and pure. Even without the score, this is a total layup. This is a gorgeous French Rosé at an absurd price. One of the absolute best quality-to-price ratio offers of the year, every single year… no questions asked.
