New 2009 vintage, the 2008 was rated: RVF 14.5/20, Bettane & Desseauve 14/20
This red Sancerre cuvée is made from a harvest of Pinot Noir grapes picked at full maturity, resulting in a powerful wine with aromas of ripe red fruit and a long finish. A beautiful expression of fruit for this rich and powerful wine, which calls for a fillet steak with pepper sauce...

Rated estate (2011 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking and, as such, all the estates listed in it, even those without stars, represent, in our opinion, the excellence of French production.)

About the estate:

"This thirty-something winemaker has been making a name for himself since 2000 with his red Sancerres, but his ambition doesn't stop at Pinot Noir. His Sauvignons are also moving upmarket and gaining in precision, expressing themselves in a rich, mature style typical of the Bué area—particularly the Chêne Marchand sector."
