Vintage Report

The 2023 vintage for white wines from the Loire Valley receives an excellent score of 95 points in the Robert Parker Vintage Chart. This indicates an exceptionally good vintage with very high-quality wines.

It's no wonder Brochard has been our best-selling Sancerre for years, as it produces such refined quality. The Hubert Brochard estate comprises 113 hectares of Sauvignon Blanc and 39 hectares of Pinot Noir, spread across the communes of Chavignol, Sancerre, Sainte-Gemme, Ménétréol, Saint-Satur, Thauvenay, and Bannay, with additional vineyards in Pouilly-Fumé. These diverse holdings offer the Brochards a range of soils for crafting wines of depth and complexity. The family holds plots in Les Monts Damnés and the Côte de Beaujeu, two of Chavignol's most famous vineyards, where terres blanches and Kimmeridgian marl soils produce powerful wines. Silex, or flint, is concentrated around Sancerre, Saint-Satur, Ménétréol, and Thauvenay, producing wines with a strong mineral character. Finally, vineyards planted on chalky caillottes soil provide attractive aromas to the wines. Domaine Hubert Brochard is one of the few Sancerre producers that continues to harvest most of its grapes by hand. The Sauvignon Blanc special cuvées, some vineyards, and all Pinot Noir are harvested by hand and transported to the winery in small crates. Sauvignon Blanc is destemmed and pneumatically pressed for vinification in stainless steel tanks.

The terroir of Hubert Brochard Sancerre Classique

Sancerre Classique comes from six different communes within the Sancerre appellation, which comprises approximately 40 percent limestone, 30 percent flint, and 30 percent clay. All plots are estate-owned and have an average age of 30 years. The grapes are destemmed and pneumatically pressed, with vinification taking place entirely in stainless steel tanks. The aroma is truly inviting, highly refined with lovely notes of fresh white fruit and white flowers complemented by citrus and minerals. The palate is a true Sancerre gem, beautifully fresh with rounded, soft acidity. Plenty of nuances of apple and pear, and of course, minerals, citrus, and violets. The Hubert Bochard Sancerre Blanc is a wine that can age for three years but is already delicious to drink now.
