On the palate, abundant freshness is accompanied by an aromatic palette of exotic fruits, with a bewitching and balanced finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe fruit for this wine comes from the vineyards spread over Brinay, which are characterised by sandy and gravelly soils. The vines are between 3 to 18 years old and are trained with the Guyot system. Domaine des Brosses has used a machine harvester to collect the grapes since 1989. This is to ensure the Sauvignon Blanc is brought to the winery in the cool night-time temperatures, thus preserving the quality of the fruit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEstablished in 1875, Domaine des Brosses lies 10 kilometres south of Sancerre and was modernised by the Girard family, who took over the winery and its 11 hectares of vineyards in 1973. Nicolas Girard, who now runs the estate, travelled extensively in search of the world's finest Sauvignon Blancs and the best techniques for tending these vines. He has applied this knowledge to Domaine des Brosses’ vineyards on the hillsides around the village of Veaugues. These vines are particularly prized for their naturally well-draining soils and southern exposure. In total, there are six parcels of vines, each imparting slightly different nuances to the finished wine, which is aged on its fine lees for several months to add weight to the palate. The resulting expression has aromas of white flowers, pear and apricots, coupled with a racy acidity typical of Sancerre.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63734595846521,"sku":"10164824","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/AlainGirardDomainedesBrossesQuincy.jpg?v=1726565686","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/alain-girard-domaine-des-brosses-quincy-2024","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
