Sancerre

Trade Tools

This Sauvignon comes mostly from vineyards in seven villages, with the three famous Sancerre Terroirs : Chalk, flint, Caillotes. Sauvignon grapes are harvested partly by machine and partly by hand. The pressing is only in pneumatic presses. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks with controlled temperature in order to keep all the fine aromas of Sauvignon. A perfect expression of an ideal Sancerre.

Vineyard

Hubert Brochard Vineyard is a total of 93 Ha : 83 Ha in Sancerre (with 10 Ha of Pinot Noir), 5 Ha in Pouilly Fumé, 5 Ha in IGP. It is very fragmented and extends over the villages of Chavignol, Sancerre, Amigny, Sainte Gemme, Ménétréol , Saint Satur, Thauvenay and Vinon. Powerful erosion has developed many types of soils (Chalk, Caillotes and flint). The average age of the vine is 30 years old. The vineyard is HVE environmental certified (High Environmental Value)

Vintage

A warm, dry summer in the Central Loire with timely September rain in 2023 resulted in grapes reaching full ripeness and textbook alcohol levels.
