Cellar for up to 5 years. Serve chilled.

The Fournier family have been making wine since the 1800s and today their domaine is considered one of the finest in the Sancerre appellation. In total they control 222 acres of vines including prime plots in Maimbray, Verdigny and Bue which rank amongst Sancerre’s top terroirs. All of their vineyards are farmed organically, yields are kept low, and the grapes are all harvested by hand to ensure quality.

Once in the winery they use cutting-edge technology including use of gravity to release the juice from the grapes and careful temperature regulation of the tanks during fermentation. This helps to preserve freshness and elegance in the wines, creating some of the purest Sauvignon Blancs in all of Sancerre.

The domaine’s Grand Cuvee is a superb expression of this style crafted from 45 year old vines planted on flint and clay soils. Before bottling the wine is matured on the fine lees and a fifth of the wine is fermented in the barrel which adds extra body and complexity. The result is a creamy yet crisp and elegant white wine which exudes delicate hints of citrus, stone fruit and honey. A fantastic aperitif or partner for salads, seafood and sushi.
