4.2/5 (4 customers)

Note: RVF 15.5/20
This cuvée is a faithful reflection of its exceptional terroir: the “Chêne Marchand” plots, whose soil is strewn with small white stones that release the heat stored during the day, thereby contributing to the grapes’ ripening... A superb expression!

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 ambition extends beyond Pinot Noir. His Sauvignon Blancs are also gaining in quality and finesse, expressing a rich, ripe style typical of the Bué region—particularly the Chêne Marchand area."
