The vines for this cuvée are meticulously trained using the single Guyot and Cordon de Royat methods, with a planting density of 7,500 to 8,500 vines per hectare. Cultivated using organic and biodynamic practices, they thrive in soil that is primarily limestone with 10% flint-clay. The grapes are destemmed and gently transported to the press. Natural vinification follows the lunar cycle, incorporating cold pre-fermentation maceration and twelve months of aging in barrels.

Pierre J. Fouassier
In Sancerre, Pierre-Jacques Fouassier carries out meticulous work on a plot-by-plot basis, with each terroir imparting its own distinct character. The Sauvignons display a quiet tension, while the Pinots offer a straightforward texture. The aging process does not seek to create a showy effect, but rather to achieve balance. In a nutshell: great structure. The estate remains a reliable benchmark.
