A single-vineyard Sancerre grown on pure flint, and the wine to reach for when you want to taste terroir naked. The Mellot family -- 19th generation, certified biodynamic -- draws Les Romains from one steep, south-facing parcel of silex, the flinty soil rich in fossilized material that gives Sancerre its smoky, saline edge. The vineyard takes its name from the remains of a Roman road that crosses it. Where the estate's Edmond bottling shows chalk-driven richness, Les Romains is all cut and minerality, a snapshot of a specific slice of ground. Precise, vibrant, and unmistakably of its place.
