About this product +

Producer >

A real family affair: father, mother, son and daughter-in-law are all actively involved. Son, Julien, is gradually taking over from his father in the vineyards and cellar whilst Justine, his wife, is now managing most of the sales. The family have owned land in Sancerre since the 17th century and today the domaine is spread over 16 hectares around the commune of Verdigny, a little to the north west of the town of Sancerre. The soil is complex here with differing elements of limestone, flint and clay. Farming is done according to biodynamic principles and only indigenous yeasts are employed in the cellar. Ageing for the two whites and the rosé is done in tank.
