The Vacheron family puts farming at the top of their priorities having converted to biodynamic in 2005. As great wine is made in the vineyard, farming is done entirely by hand while most in Sancerre continue to use mechanization. Many of their principles are likened to the Burgundian approach in that wines are a product of the vintage and parcels are vinified separately. The domain is located in the eastern part of Sancerre along the Loire river where a hard mineral known as silex is prominent in the soils. The Vacheron brothers aim to make a Sancerre worthy of aging; they are at the top of their game right now. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComing from a vineyard on the eastern part of Sancerre where the silex content is high, the style evokes more of the smokey Pouilly-Fume style just across the river. The vineyard name is a nod to the ancient Romans who first planted vines in this region. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glazers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45133205798935,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/9076\/4311\/files\/Vacheron_Sancerre_Les_Romains_2020.jpg?v=1779302789","url":"https:\/\/hartandcru.com\/products\/vacheron-sancerre-les-romains-2020","provider":"HART \u0026 CRU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
