Hippolyte Reverdy’s family has been making wine in the charming village of Verdigny, a commune of Sancerre in the eastern Loire, for many generations—perhaps as far back as 1600.
SANCERRE CLASSIC RETURNS: HIPPOLYTE REVERDY, BUT DRESSED IN PINK “I tasted good Sancerres in several caves but selected Hippolyte Reverdy’s because it was the prettiest, because it has none of the dreaded SO2, because his price is far from painful, and because I liked his name. When you are named Kermit, there is a satisfaction to be gained by meeting an Hippolyte.” — Kermit Lynch, June 1983 Newsletter
…And thus began Kermit Lynch’s nearly forty year relationship with the Hippolyte Reverdy estate. Many of you will be surprised to find out that rosé is in fact made in Sancerre (Sancerre Rouge from Pinot Noir is also a thing!). This rosé, bottled from 100% Pinot Noir from vines averaging 30 years of age, is the perfect introduction to the category, and the best way to level up your rosé game for your next picnic. Its light salmon color, snappy red fruits, and balance between zip and texture are pure joy.
