Roblin Sancerre Rose Les Fossiles 2019
About the wine
The winemakers behind some of the best Sancerre in the bizz have turned their hand to rosé, and aren't we glad they did...
As well as making top-notch Sancerre for Angels, the Roblin brothers supply a lot of wine to high-end bars and restaurants. So the closures due to Covid hit them hard. As part of our $5m Covid Support Fund, we were able to lend a helping hand - and get hold of this seriously classy rosé Sancerre.
A dreamy vivid pink in colour, this is a modern and vibrant rosé full of the fruit laden joys of spring. Staying light, bright and fabulously fruity on the palette, with delicious strawberry and red berry flavours.
- The Roblins are nothing if not thorough. They know the Loire Valley like the backs of their hands and have been sure to capture its hallmark zest and florality in this well rounded number - it’s a knockout.
