Sancerre rouge

Red Sancerre is made from Burgundy's Pinot Noir grape, and is only produced in relatively small quantities, hence it is seldom seen outside France. It is however quite different from red burgundy, in that most is drunk relatively young. Yet it is a beguiling wine, which, having undergone a touch of oak ageing to add a bit of complexity, develops a smooth, vanilla-fruity richness after a couple of years in bottle.

Try this red slightly chilled to accompany a summer picnic - very refreshing. Older bottles, with their low tannins, will happily accompany grilled pork, lamb chops and hard cheeses.
