Winemaker's Notes: Delicate mineral notes of chalk and slate with good citrus and melon in the nose. Firm acidity brace this wine so that it will stand up to and marry well with fish, shellfish and goat cheese. Fairly rich in the middle with nice snap. Christian Thirot-Fournier’s family has been making wine in the Sancerre region for several generations. Their winery and most of their nine hectares of vineyards are located in the chalky, clay soil around their village of Bué, where many of Sancerre’s most prestigious vineyards are located. The soil around this village contains the perfect balance of chalk and clay. The wines are thus quite floral and high toned in the nose while having a rich, full-bodied middle.
