Rated estate (2012 guide) 5 stars (Outstanding production)
About the estate:
Acquired by the Sicardi and Sergi families in 1993, Clos Saint-Vincent has undergone a number of changes, notably its transition to biodynamic farming. The vineyard, planted on siliceous-calcareous soil with Pliocene pebbles and pudding stones, benefits from the dual influence of sea breezes and cool currents descending from the southern foothills of the Alps. Cultivated with great care, the grapes (Roll, Braquet, Folle Noire, etc.) produce a delicious range of Bellet appellation wines, which are among the finest whites in France."

Rated estate (2012 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking and, as such, all the estates listed in it, even those without stars, represent, in our opinion, the excellence of French production.)
About the estate:
Joseph Sergi cultivates this 5-hectare micro-vineyard with all the rigor of a lover of wine and his terroir. The vines are tended with care and the estate is now biodynamic. The winemaking process is meticulous, with most of the fermentation taking place in wood (muids and demi-muids) followed by ambitious aging. This can sometimes explain the (noble) reductive nuances in the first few years of bottling, particularly for the whites, which need to be aerated before serving for both cuvées, Le Clos (aged for 12 months) and Vino Di Gio (aged for 18 months)."
