Sancerre & Cairanne in Wood
Two classic French wines presented in a wooden gift box.
Silex Sancerre By Domaine Michel Thomas
The finest Sancerres come from special flint-rich soils known as silex, and Michel Thomas’ best vineyards, within view of the hill-top town itself, epitomise the style. Rich and racy Sancerre with classic citrus minerality and gun-flint character.
From a father and son team with an absolute passion for their vines. It is taut, focused, intense; fresh citrus with mineral complexity. A stunning Sancerre.
Domaine Alary, Cairanne Rouge, L’Estévenas
"One of the top names in Cairanne, Domaine Alary is a must stop for fans of traditional Southern Rhône wines."
- The Wine Advocate
Denis Alary’s wines are benchmark Southern Rhône's: spicy, rich and peppery with warm, juicy fruit, they are consistently appealing and a great representation of the region.
The palate is medium-to-full-bodied, creamy and lush, with juicy dark fruit flavours, fine-grained tannins, savoury nuance and a seamless mouthfeel. The finish is long, silky and elegantly structured, with black fruit lingering alongside savoury, mineral and herbal notes.
