Our wines
Our Sancerre wines are produced on the steep slopes surrounding the village of Sury-en-Vaux.
Sancerre Les Godons
Sauvignon for the white, Pinot noir for the red
Former property of Chateau de la Bucède, my grandfather acquired this superb parcel in 1946. Forming a natural amphitheatre on a very steep slope, protected from the wind, it has a very good exposition to the sun, Les Godons vineyard is blessed with a unique microclimate.
Sancerre Les Chasseignes
Sauvignon
The Les Chasseignes slopes are composed of limestone soil. These steep slopes provide the vines with optimal exposure to sunlight. This fine Sancerre Blanc is vinified in oak barrels.
Pouilly-Fumé Les Lumeaux
Sauvignon
The wine from this vineyard exhibits the natural characteristics of the limestone-clay terroir which is loaded with “caillotes” (pebbly chalk soil) and favoured with an excellent southeastern exposure.
Pouilly-Fumé Mosaïque
Sauvignon
Wine made from these vines are grown on several parcels of predominatly kimmeridgian marl soil then blended for this cuvee. This “mosaic” of terroirs gives the wine its extraordinary balance.
Coteaux du Giennois
Sauvignon for the white, Pinot Noir and Gamay for the red
The Coteaux du Giennois vineyards are grown on a very complex terroir composed of a flinty-clay surface over a chalky subsoil. This surface layer has flint pebbles which act as natural miniature storage heaters storing heat during the day and releasing it at night.
