The Story

Location

Exception comes from three exceptional vineyards : - Chêne Marchand in the village of Bué, - Mont Damné in the village of Chavignol, Clos du Roy in the village of Crézancy.

 

Vinification

The grapes are hand selected. The must of the three vineyards are blended and fermented with its own wild yeasts in thermo regulated tanks. After a long stay on lees in stainless steel tanks (without any oak aging), the wine is bottled without filtration between May and September.

 

Character

The very intense nose develops into subtle mineral aromas lifted by pear and citrus fruits. We note a splendid intensity in the mouth. The mineral notes are very present on the palate. This top-of-the-range Sancerre originates from the most beautiful soils from where it bears its name. This is one wine that be at its highest expression in 3 to 5 years.

 

Food & Wine Match

This wine can be appreciated with lobster, rich fish dishes and white meats accompanied by mushrooms.
