Pascal et Nicolas Reverdy - Sancerre Terre de Maimbray blanc 2025

Bettane & Desseauve

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.

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 estate (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.

About the wine:

This is a flawless wine—both rich and fresh, and always perfectly balanced. Every year, it’s an excellent choice for lovers of fine Sancerre whites.

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 embodies a shift toward more floral and delicate 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, for example, the “A Nicolas” cuvée, which has refined itself over the last few vintages to become a deeper, unvarnished wine.
