"Named after the fossils that formed much of the soil in Sancerre and its surroundings, this wine is rich and smooth with hints of toast from aging in oak. A gentle acidity adds a bright touch to the ripe white fruit. A beautifully balanced wine to drink from 2021 onwards." (Wine Enthusiast)

Rated estate (2026 guide) 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

Constantly improving, the Roblin brothers offer wines of great consistency, produced from a 17-hectare vineyard, mainly spread over white soil terroirs, but also in the hillside areas of Maimbray and Sury-en-Vaux. This is an estate where there are many good value wines.
