Rated estate (2011 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
"This thirty-something winemaker has made a name for himself since 2000 with his red Sancerre wines, but his ambitions extend beyond Pinot Noir. His Sauvignon Blancs are also gaining in quality and finesse, expressing themselves in a rich, ripe style typical of the Bué region—particularly the Chêne Marchand area."
