Domaine Paul Thomas Sancerre Rose 2022 750ml
Producer Notes Just east of Sancerre is the village of Chavignol, home of Domaine Paul Thomas. It is a small estate on the slopes of the Les Monts Damnés, from which they produce beautiful wines from the deepest, purest outcropping of Kimmeridgean limestone in Chavignol. Domaine Paul Thomas is run by Raphael Thomas, son of Paul. Raphael originally intended to pursue a career in physics, but after his father tragically passed away at the end of the harvest in 2000, he made the decision to carry out his father’s legacy by returning to Chavignol and taking over management of the winery. From just ten hectares of vines, Raphael produces 80,000 bottles. 75% of the total production isSauvignon Blanc (Sancerre) while the remaining 25% is Pinot Noir (eitherSancerre Rouge or Rosé). Light red fruit and minerality make for a refined, delicate rosé. The wine is ideal as an aperitif or with seafood.
