Details
A taut Pinot Noir-based rosé here from the team at Guillopées. This is zippy and fresh, with a subtle herbal quality running throughout, and notes of crunchy red fruits and minerality.

Guillopées Cooperative Winery is located in the picturesque Sancerre sub-region of the Loire Valley in France. This is a prominent player in winemaking from the region, established in 1963 when a band of wine growers came together to overcome the economic struggles of the time. The cooperative is a collective of passionate and quality-led local vintners dedicated to maintaining the rich tradition of Sancerre wines. Established to pool resources and expertise, Guillopées focuses on sustainable viticulture, ensuring that their practices protect the environment while producing high-quality wines. The terroir of Sancerre, with its chalky and flinty soils, imparts a distinct minerality and freshness to the wines, characteristics that Guillopées' members meticulously enhance through careful vineyard management and innovative winemaking techniques.

Pairing guide
Who could resist the elegance and freshness of this delicious Upper Loire rosé? It’s a stunning bottle with endless charm, and one that’s destined for al fresco sipping alongside friends, family and great food. This wine is going to match perfectly with juicy prawns, seared scallops (especially if served with some black pudding or charcuterie), salty cheeses and olives, and it’s also wonderful with spicy Thai salads and Vietnamese summer rolls. Salmon and tuna creations, chicken thighs with peas, couscous salads and pork chops with cherry tomatoes will also work a treat.
