Tasting notes
A precise and dynamic wine, delicately balancing and
assembling the crispness of Sauvignon Blanc with the
elegance of itstypical Sancerre terroir.
Chiselled and full-bodied, with
crisp fruit and a lingering finish.
An expressive nose of citrus fruit and
pineapple precedes a round, brilliant
palate with hints of eucalyptus, followed
by a fresh, mineral finish typical of its
appellation.
Description
For 10 generations, we have offered our passion and values ??as winegrowers to develop Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Noirs of great character. Each member of our family, Jean-Marie Bourgeois, Arnaud, Lionel and Jean-Christophe, bring their talent to the Domaine. Established in Chavignol, in the heart of the best terroirs of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, we cultivate a mosaic of plots respecting our unique terroirs of Kimmeridgian Marl, Silex and Limestone Clays.
Terroir
Vines grown on a terroir of flinty
clays and limestone, located on
the hills between Chavignol and
Sancerre.
Yields are deliberately low, with
high-density cultivation and interrow grassing.
