Description

    Domaine Henri Bourgeois , established in Chavignol for ten generations, is one of the undisputed benchmarks of Sancerre. Their pursuit of excellence on the appellation's steepest slopes has allowed them to create the Jadis cuvée, a wine emblematic of their expertise. 92+ points, Wine Advocate


    Domaine Philippe Gilbert , a committed player in Menetou-Salon, has been cultivating its vineyard biodynamically for many years. The natural approach and meticulous work in the cellar result in honest, straightforward wines that perfectly express the clay-limestone terroir of Parassy.


    On the other side of the world, Cloudy Bay revolutionized the image of Sauvignon Blanc by putting Marlborough on the map of the world's great terroirs as early as the 1980s. Its flamboyant aromatic style and consistent quality make it one of the most admired estates in New Zealand. 94 points, Wine Advocate

    Producer

    Producer

    Jadis originates from the steep slopes of Chavignol, where flint soils and Kimmeridgian limestone sculpt deep and straightforward wines.

    Les Chandelières are rooted in the clay-limestone soils of Menetou-Salon, a terroir renowned for producing Sauvignons that are elegant, precise and subtly smoky.

    Cloudy Bay, finally, exploits the alluvial soils and gravelly terraces of Marlborough, whose generous sunshine and cool nights reveal a vibrant Sauvignon Blanc, intensely aromatic and perfectly ripe.

    Owner and history

    Domaine Henri Bourgeois remains an emblematic family business in the Sancerre region, now run by the 10th generation, guardians of a tradition of precision and high standards.

    Domaine Philippe Gilbert, which has been in the hands of the family since the 18th century, has established itself as a pioneer of biodynamic farming in the region, conducted with conviction and modernity.

    Cloudy Bay, founded in 1985 by David Hohnen, now belongs to the LVMH group and remains a global reference for Sauvignon Blanc, a symbol of the revival of New World wines.

    Vinification and aging

    Henri Bourgeois signs Jadis thanks to a precise plot-by-plot vinification, with slow fermentation in large oak casks and aging on fine lees which brings volume and length.


    At Philippe Gilbert's, winemaking follows the principles of biodynamics, with natural fermentations and aging in vats and demi-muids that respects the identity of the terroir.


    Cloudy Bay produces its Sauvignon using gentle pressing, with fermentations partly in tanks and partly in old barrels, in order to preserve the energy of the fruit while adding complexity.

    The team's opinion

    Three faces of Sauvignon Blanc that reveal the beauty of the terroirs: the depth of Sancerre, the finesse of Menetou-Salon and the luminous intensity of Marlborough.
