A refined, classic Sancerre with a subtle smokiness and aromas of bruised apple and honey. The palate is textural with layers of rich, lifted minerality and ripe citrus fruit, leading into the long, substantial finish. A great weight and depth to this wine which is well-balanced and has a lovely acidity throughout. Best to let breathe for optimal tasting experience.

Try with: fish, shellfish of course, white meats, salads and most vegetarian dishes

This wine is Organic.

Julien and Clément manage 20 hectares of vines across 60 different parcels, three quarters of which are Sauvignon Blanc and one quarter Pinot Noir. Soils are primarily the classic ‘terres blanches’ clay chalk, a heavier soil which gives the wines a ripe fruit character, and some 'caillottes', a form of limestone. A very modern, well-equipped, stainless steel cellar allows them to control the temperature of the wines during fermentation and later storage in tank prior to bottling to retain the freshness of the fruit characters. The grapes for this cuvée are a blend from all of the Raimbault's parcels of Sauvignon Blanc, and the wine is aged in stainless steel for ten months on its lees.
