The Story: For 10 generations, the Bourgeois family has shared their passion and values as winegrowers, producing world-class Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir in the heart of the Loire Valley. Brought to fruition by Henri Bourgeois over 50 years ago, the vineyards used in this Sancerre lie on some of the most rugged hillside terrains, offering the best exposures in Loire Valley. The family is forever striving to perfect their craft while remaining committed to Henri’s original vision.
Why You’ll Love Me: Subtle yet powerful, its persistence and harmony find their origin in the exposition and quality of the terroir. An expressive nose of citrus fruit and pineapple precedes a round, brilliant palate with hints of eucalyptus, followed by a fresh, mineral finish typical of the appellation.
