This Sancerre exhibits a pale yellow body with a fresh fruit aroma and bouquet. The fruit for this wine is obtained from two very differently situated vineyards. The first vineyard, Les Caillottes, located on small hills near Verdigny, yields fruit that is harvested young and affords wine that is aromatic, bright, and elegant. The second vineyard (Les Terres Blanches on Grosses Terres, near Chavignol) is located to the west of Sancerre on much larger hills, lies in chalky soil and yields fruit which is rounder and richer with significantly more structure.
