H. Bourgeois Sancerre Rosé '23

Crafted from Pinot Noir in France’s Loire Valley, this salmon-hued rosé dazzles with aromas of white peach, wild raspberry, and a touch of flinty minerality. The palate is crisp yet textured, offering flavors of citrus zest, watermelon rind, and a subtle saline edge that scored 91 points. Stainless steel fermentation preserves its racy acidity (pH 3.1) at 12.5% alcohol, while brief lees contact adds depth. The finish is clean and persistent, with a hint of rosewater. Serve chilled with oysters on the half-shell or a Niçoise salad to highlight its Provençal-inspired finesse. Drink now-2026.
