ESTATE HISTORY

Following the extension of the Domaine by Monsieur Jean NAUDET in 1985 the Société Civile d'Exploitation Viticole came into being with his son Michel as its head.

TERROIR

Soils: Clay, limestone and flint

VITICULTURE

Average age of vines: 30 to 50 years old.
Sustainable farming.

WINEMAKING

The vinification of each terroir is done separately.
The alcoholic fermentation is done in steel tanks and the temperature is controlled at every stage of the vinification.
The wine stays on very fine lees all winter. This will give aromas and fat to the wine.
After tasting each tank, the blending of the terroir is done.
The aim is to get a very well balanced Sancerre, with typical aromas and minerality.
No oak at all.

TASTING & FOOD PAIRINGS

Colour: a pale yellow with green highlights. 
A very expressive nose with fruity notes. There are floral and mineral nuances underscored by fine freshness.
The mouth is generous with flavours of white-fleshed fruits. A supple and round attack leads to a meaty finish with balanced vivacity.
Pairs perfectly with fish and sea food. In Sancerre it goes equally well with Crottin de Chavignol cheese.
Serving temperature: Serve fresh at 10°C.
