"A wonderful Sancerre classic that makes you want to come back right away!"

"Sourced from hillside plots around the village of Maimbray, this is a stunning, juicy Pinot that includes 20% whole clusters. The fruit (raspberry and blackcurrant coulis), very lively on the nose, fills the palate with a charming, very tender, smooth yet crisp mouthfeel, interwoven with subtle tannins that blend seamlessly into the flesh. An incredibly indulgent profile that delighted the jury. Why wait?” (Le Guide Hachette 2026)

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though a bit more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

This 14-hectare family-owned estate, managed by Pascal Reverdy, is carefully cultivated using highly environmentally friendly methods, though it does not claim to be organic. Among the white wines, the Terre-de-Maimbray cuvée—produced from Kimmeridgian soil similar to that of Chablis—is a wonderful introduction to the estate’s wines. This is one of the best value-for-money wines in Sancerre.

Rated estate (2026 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the wine:

Sourced from hillside plots around the village of Maimbray, this is a stunning, juicy Pinot that includes 20% whole clusters. The fruit (raspberry and blackcurrant coulis), vibrant right from the first sniff, fills the palate with a charming, very soft, smooth yet crisp mouthfeel, interwoven with subtle tannins that blend seamlessly into the wine’s body. An incredibly indulgent profile that delighted the jury. Why wait?

About the estate:

The village of Maimbray is surrounded by steep hillsides with Kimmeridgian marl soils. After the death of her husband Nicolas in 2007, Sophie Reverdy took over the family vineyard (17.8 ha) alongside her brother-in-law Pascal. In 2019, Victorien, Pascal’s son, joined the estate, followed in 2023 by Benjamin, the youngest son.

Wine rated (2026 guide) 90/100

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a good standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the wine:

Terre de Maimbray offers a beautiful, tender, and juicy expression of Pinot Noir, highlighted by the typical firmness of Sancerre. Feel free to open it ahead of time to let the reduction fade.

About the estate:

At their estate in Sury-En-Vaux, Pascal Reverdy and his sister-in-law Sophie produce a range of single-vineyard whites full of character, with fruity and subtly mineral notes and smoky finishes. The 2020 vintage marks a shift toward more floral and graceful reds, the result of their exploration of partial whole-cluster fermentation. The arrival of Pascal’s son, Victorien, a young winemaker, has undeniably breathed new life into the wines. Take the “A Nicolas” cuvée, for example, which has refined itself over the last few vintages to become a deeper, unvarnished wine.
