This unique soil produces grapes with a mineral, flint character and intense salinity. The vineyards achieved sustainable certification in April 2022 and are meticulously managed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eThe grapes are carefully monitored to ensure they have reached ideal aromatic maturity before harvest. Upon arrival in the winery they are cold soaked for eight days before being gently pressed. Fermentation occurs in French barrels from the Bertranges forest at controlled temperatures of 16-18°C. The wine is further aged for eight months with regular lees stirring before bottling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLocated on the eastern side of Sancerre, Domaine Roc de l’Abbaye by Florian Mollet is one of few estates in the appellation to be planted entirely on flint soils. This soil, known as ‘silex’, represents just 15% of the Sancerre appellation and is coveted for its geological make-up, which produces wines with expressive gunflint aromas and a taut character. The history of the estate began in 15th century when the nearby Abbey identified four hectares of silex soil and named it Domaine du Clos du Roc. These four hectares became part of the domaine in 1973 through the marriage of Jean-Paul Mollet and Rosie-Marie Maudry, who combined their family estates to create Domaine Roc de L’Abbaye.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehttps:\/\/www.rocdelabbaye.com\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64524894732665,"sku":"10198622","price":34.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/DomaineRocdel_AbbayeL_AntiquePouillyFume.png?v=1789052712","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/domaine-roc-de-labbaye-lantique-pouilly-fume-2022","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
