“Sauvignon” very characteristic for its freshness and its aromas, gives a dry and fruity wine. Its typicity is due to the nature of the terrain – geological base dating from the secondary school whose formations extend on both sides of the “fault” of Sancerre – Jurassic and limestone. The Blanc variety is cultivated on hillsides (slopes up to 40%) and also, on limestone plateaux and very stony – called “caillottes” – which give the wine of Sancerre Blanc this very particular aroma.

After a slight settling, the must ferment in stainless steel tanks equipped with thermo-regulation, to preserve the aromas called "primary".
