Domaine Delaporte Silex 2020 Chavignol Sancerre (Pinot Noir), $29.99-$41.99, 89 points, poured a deep cranberry red with a broad clear meniscus and light sticky legs.
Aromas of cocoa, flowers, red cherry, and mulberry were pleasant.
My first Sancerre Pinot Noir was an angular medium-bodied red wine with good acidity, tighter tannins than I would have expected from a Pinot Noir, and interestingly a quite grapey flavor profile nuanced with herbs and citrus.
Finished long and spicy with a well-balanced 13% alcohol.
Paired fine with our chicken smorgasbord.
