| Silver Medal winner at the 2017 Concours des Ligers, this Sancerre is the result of a blend of Sauvignon Blanc coming from different parcels of two soil types: \"terres blanches\" and \"caillottes.\" The terres blanches soils give the wine power and a smooth mouthfeel, while the caillottes soils provide it with fruit and aromatic finesse. |
