Sancerre

THE PRODUCER

The family estate, taken over by Daniel Crochet in 1996, now has 9.93 hectares with 6.43 hectares of Sauvignon and 3.50 hectares of Pinot Noir. All of them are in Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (A.O.C.) Sancerre. The terroirs are composed of white soils with a clay-limestone composition and very stony and calcareous caillottes. The vines of the domain are cultivated in organic way and are in the process of being certified AB. They are worked and grassed naturally according to the terroir. The plot selection reveals the complexity and nuances of the terroirs in the wines. All the vintages are harvested by hand in order to preserve the maximum potential of the harvest. The vinification is as natural as possible with the use of indigenous yeasts while seeking purity and balance.
