We find three terroir determined by the type of met ground there is Calcareous or « Calcaire » (or caillottes), argilo-limestones or « argilo-calcaire » (or Earth Blanche) and clays with flint « argiles à silex ».

Tasting :

For the Sancerre, its aromas translate most of the time floral notes up to the fruity notes such as citrus fruits (grapefruit, pomelos) up to the notes of flint which are determined by the grounds on which the vine grow.

White wines are of color pale green-gold and are dry but they generally have rather round mouths and balance on the freshness. Red wines have a beautiful dress cherry and their smell is floral. They are well-balanced wines, with the power and the sharpness.

Rosé wines are dry and fine, rather fat.
