    Additional Info

    After several years of reflection and with 2021 as the first base vintage, Luc Prieur decided to evolve the style of the domaine’s classic Sancerre Rosé. He wanted to produce a fresh and balanced wine, while avoiding the simpler, candied style that Pinot Noir Rosé often displays after a short aging period and rapid bottling.

    Luc preferred the vinous style that their rosé achieved after a couple years in bottle, but also wanted to maintain freshness. With this Rosé Perpétuel, the goal is to balance these two elements and produce a singular wine that is complex even in its youth but with the potential to age as well.
