The story of the family is told over ten generations of winegrowers. Men and women who cultivated both an attachment – to Sancerre, in the village of Chavignol – and the courage to uphold their art. However, most importantly: A commitment to revealing the great terroirs of the appellation.

Vines are cultivated with respect for the environment and so that nature blossoms forth. The grapes of each plot are tasted so that each one is harvested at optimum maturity. The flavours of these grapes are transformed, retaining the purity of expression and identity of their sites in a gravity cellar which the architecture plunges deep into the hill of Chavignol. Nourished by singular terroirs and enriched by a unique micro-climate, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir flourish here in the hills. Each of our wines is a celebration of these grape varieties, shaped by the inimitable personality of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé.

For the last 23 years, chef Jean-Marc Bourgeois has worked to praise the splendeur of Chavignol through his cuisine. Trained at Taillevent and by Jean-Pierre Vigato, he now works in his family hotel-restaurant, to reinterpret the culinary heritage of his area through gourmet cooking of the highest standards.
