2019 Domaine Gueneau ‘Chavignolet’ Sancerre Rosé
$29.00Add to cartTasting Notes Bright partridge-eye pink. The first smell is characterised by fermentation notes of apple and red currant, opening up to aromas of ripe lemon, then creamy notes of pear yoghurt.

It is the perfect match for aperitif, barbecues, and exotic dishes. -
