Description

It reveals the purest facet of Sauvignon Blanc through vibrant aromas of citrus and stone-fruits. This harmonious cuvée is the "Pure" expression of theSancerre wines' delicate style. This Sancerre comes from vines planted on clayley-limestone slopes, perfectly exposed to the sun (south - southwest) in the heart of the Sancerre appellation. Thanks to a diversity of soils types, mainly clay and chalk and a strict blending from selected plots “Pure” shows ripe citrus fruits aromas, finesse, and a nice minerality.

Estate

For 10 generations, we have offered our passion and values ??as winegrowers to develop Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Noirs of great character. Each member of our family, Jean-Marie Bourgeois, Arnaud, Lionel and Jean-Christophe, bring their talent to the Domaine. Established in Chavignol, in the heart of the best terroirs of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, we cultivate a mosaic of plots respecting our unique terroirs of Kimmeridgian Marl, Silex and Limestone Clays.

Vinification

The grapes are carefully and quickly brought to the cellar. After settling for 24 to 36 hours, the must is placed in thermoregulated stainless steel tanks where fermentation takes place at between 15 and 18°C. At the end of fermentation, the first racking is carried out to remove the first lees. It is then matured on its fine lees at cool temperature during 5 months before bottling.
