4-Star Rated Estate (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

Brothers Clément and Florent Pinard continue to keep their estate at the pinnacle of success. Without a sales agent or representative, their wines are served at the finest Michelin-starred restaurants and exported, delighting a handful of loyal enthusiasts eager to taste their latest vintages. They manage their 17 hectares according to the principles of organic farming, without certification, and began practicing biodynamics in 2018. They produce refined and delicate whites, and full-bodied reds, some made from whole clusters, which imparts additional richness and complexity to the Pinot and places them among the finest wines of the Loire. Low sulfur, indigenous yeasts selected by the winemakers themselves, and hand-harvesting—everything converges toward excellence, pushing every detail to be re-examined with each vintage. The eight whites, in particular, offer a highly educational exploration of the different terroirs of Bué, spanning various layers of limestone, silica, and marl.

Wine rated (2026 guide) 94/100

Rated estate (2026 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)

About the wine:

The intensity, depth, and texture build from "Harmonie" onward, brimming with a superb brininess.

About the estate:

In the wine-growing village of Bué, the Pinard family has made their estate one of the most iconic in Sancerre. With each vintage, brothers Florent and Clément continually push their limits to craft a flavor profile ever closer to their terroirs, both in viticulture (conversion to organic farming, yield control, optimal grape ripeness…) and in the cellar (using native yeast strains from their vineyards for fermentation, extended aging in demi-muids, reducing doses of volcanic sulfur…). Florès proves to be an excellent introduction to understanding the stylized and perfectly calibrated approach to the whites. The intensity then rises with cuvées that embody specific lieux-dits, from the salty and chiseled Petit Chemarin to the austere and elegant power of Chêne Marchand, via Le Château, with its comforting density. The reds are no exception, with increasingly defined, highly concentrated wines. The wines acquire remarkable grace in the 2023 vintage.
