A fourth-generation family winery in the Loire Valley, France, known as a leading producer in the Menetou-Salon appellation. The estate is celebrated for its commitment to organic farming and crafting mineral-driven Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir wines that rival those of neighboring Sancerre.

From a specific single parcel ("lieu-dit") known for its Kimmeridgian limestone soils, which provide the wine with distinct minerality and vibrant energy.

Nose: Intense and complex, featuring aromas of candied citrus, white-fleshed fruits (peach, melon), white flowers, and flinty, smoky notes.

Palate: The wine is described as full-bodied and structured with lively acidity and a "lemon curd" creamy texture. It has a persistent, almost salty mineral finish.

Structure: It is noted for its "electric vibrancy" and serious, "grown-up" style that avoids the overly pungent tropical notes sometimes found in other Sauvignon Blancs.
