Menetou-Salon Henry Pellé

Product Code: 13998

A fantastic direct, mineral offering from this great producer. A step up from our previous Menetou we took from Domaine Pelle, but well worth the extra money, for the wondrousness of this wine.

Tasting Notes : The taste is distinguished and crystal clear with a citrus fruit taste initially, followed by a saline and mineral finish. Nothing overly exuberant, just clarity and precision.

Method of Production : Vinification: - Pneumatic pressing, settling cold for 48 hours and a fermentation of between 14 degrees C and 18 degrees C for 3 to 4 weeks. Ageing is in stainless steel vats on the fine lees for 6 months.

Product Reviews

Menetou Salon Henri Pelle

You would expect to pay £12+ for Sancerre of this quality. Wonderful green and slightly nutty sauvignon. Loire at it's very best.
