Produced in the heart of the Loire Valley, Philippe Gilbert crafts wines that are a true reflection of Menetou-Salon’s distinctive terroir. The Menetou-Salon Rouge 2020 is an exceptional example of this region, showcasing the perfect balance between freshness and complexity, making it an elegant and accessible choice for Pinot Noir lovers.

The 2020 vintage opens with aromas of ripe red berries—cherry, raspberry—interwoven with hints of earthy spice and soft floral notes. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and smooth, with fine, silky tannins that provide structure without overpowering the fruit. The wine’s bright acidity enhances its freshness, while the subtle earthiness adds an extra layer of depth and complexity.

This Menetou-Salon Rouge is a versatile wine, pairing beautifully with dishes like roasted poultry, grilled meats, or even a mushroom-based risotto. Its smooth finish and balanced profile make it a perfect companion to a wide range of meals, and a wine that’s enjoyable now but can also evolve over the next few years.

Domaine Philippe Gilbert is one of the top producers in Menetou-Salon, a lesser-known AOC that borders Sancerre. While obscure in comparison to its neighbor, Menetou-Salon has great terroirs; Gilbert's fantastic wines – some of the region's very best – are proof. The domaine is equally adept at producing both mineral, fine-boned whites (Sauvignon Blanc) and silky, noble reds (Pinot Noir), both of which impress even at the entry-level domaine bottlings. Grapes are hand-harvested and farming is biodynamic.

The Loire Valley is France’s greatest source of value for anyone looking for elegant, terroir-driven wines. Our collection celebrates the region’s great diversity, with the mineral-driven whites of Muscadet and Sancerre, the beautiful Chenin Blancs and Cabernet Francs from villages like Vouvray and Chinon, and natural wines from everywhere in the region. Sometimes wonderfully fresh and gulpable, sometimes serious and age-worthy, the prices are always very reasonable.
