THE STORY

About this wine

Single-vineyard Sancerre blanc — one slope in Sury-en-Vaux, old Sauvignon Blanc vines on clay-limestone soils. The 2022 pours golden, rich on the nose with white and yellow fruit, ripe citrus and stone fruit, and it lands fresh and pronouncedly mineral on a clean, crisp finish. 14% abv.

Clément and Florian Berthier are the current generation behind Vignobles Berthier, a family domaine established by Jean-Marie Berthier in the early 1980s. The estate works across Sancerre, Coteaux du Giennois, and Pouilly-Fumé, with an emphasis on terroir expression and environmentally respectful viticulture.

Worth knowing

Les Chasseignes is a single vineyard — one slope in Sury-en-Vaux, planted to old Sauvignon Blanc on clay-limestone soils. The limestone of that parcel runs right through the finished wine.
