"Named after the fossils that formed much of the soil in and around Sancerre, this wine is rich, smooth-textured with hints of toast from wood aging. Tamed acidity adds a bright touch to the ripe white fruit. A well-balanced wine to drink from 2021 onwards". (Wine Enthusiast)

Domaine rated (guide 2026) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)

About the domain :

Steadily progressing, the Roblin brothers offer wines of great consistency from a 17-hectare vineyard, spread mainly over the terres blanches terroirs, but also in the hillside areas of Maimbray and Sury-en-Vaux. It's an estate that offers excellent value for money.
