The winemaker allows nature to take its course in the winemaking process, allowing his craftsmanship to truly shine. This results in pure wines. Jolivet grew up as the son of the cellar master of Château de Tracy in Pouilly-Fumé, the wine region opposite Sancerre. He aspired to become a winemaker, but also to forge his own path. Thus, the Pascal Jolivet winery was founded in 1987. His philosophy is to use only well-ripened grapes and to let nature take its course during vinification. The grapes' natural yeast cells do the work.\n\n\n \nPouilly is located 200 kilometers south of Paris, on the eastern bank of the Loire River. Jolivet owns eight hectares in the villages of Les Loges, St. Andelain, and Tracy. Thanks to its location close to the Loire River and surrounded by forest, the vineyards enjoy a relatively mild microclimate. The soils in Les Loges (50 percent of the blend) are chalky, giving the resulting wine length and body, while flint and clay dominate in St. Andelain (30 percent of the blend) and Tracy (20 percent of the blend). The grapes grown in these soils add ripeness and fruit to the blend's character.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Perfectly in balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n After harvest, the grapes are hand-sorted and then gently pressed. The juice is then fermented in stainless steel with natural yeasts for 33 days at 16 degrees Celsius. The grapes from each plot are fermented separately. After fermentation, the wine is aged for another two months in stainless steel before bottling.\n\n\n \nThis is clearly evident in the aroma, with lovely notes of white fruit, citrus, minerals, and a perfect dose of freshness.

Pascal Jolivet grew up as the son of the cellar master of Château de Tracy in Pouilly Fumé. Winemaking was instilled in him from an early age, and he wanted nothing more than to do the same when he was old enough. So, in 1987, he founded his Pascal Jolivet estate. He owns most of his vineyards in Sancerre, eight hectares in Pouilly Fumé, and now also fifty hectares in Touraine. His winemaking method—letting nature take its course—results in pure wines with fruit, length, and minerality.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The philosophy of Pascal Jolivet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nPascal Jolivet's philosophy is to use only well-ripened grapes and to let nature take its course during vinification. The grapes' natural yeast cells do the work. Adding artificial yeast cultures is strictly prohibited. This lengthens the fermentation period for the grape sugars. This choice results in pure wines. The grapes from the three different terroirs are individually vinified to bring out their specific characteristics. Finally, the wines are aged for several months. Pascal Jolivet wines are sold worldwide and are featured on the wine lists of many Michelin-starred restaurants in France.\n\n\n\n The aroma is a true Sancerre, with minerals, citrus fruit, apple, and a hint of flint.

The idea was to create a high-quality Loire Valley collection, not specifically from the Sancerre region, but from the Loire Valley, the world's finest terroir for the Sauvignon Blanc grape. Pascal Jolivet's dedication to this grape led him to a region rich in history and heritage, near the magnificent châteaux of Cheverny and Chambord.\n\n\n\n The vineyard consists primarily of five plots and has been expanded since 2016 to cover thirty hectares of limestone and flint.

What a refined, soft Pinot Noir that would make many top Burgundians jealous!\n\n\n\n \u003ch2\u003eThe power of nature\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n Pascal Jolivet founded this estate in 1987, making it one of the youngest in the Loire Valley. In this short time, however, their Sancerre and Pouilly Fume are considered among the best in the region.

The location, close to the Loire River and surrounded by forest, creates a relatively mild microclimate for the vineyards. The soils are a mix of chalk and clay.

Each batch is vinified separately and blended just before bottling.\n\n\n\n The aroma offers a beautiful bouquet of typical Pinot Noir aromas with hints of raspberry and blackcurrant.

A truly delicious La Bourgeoise!\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Impressive bottlings of Bourgeois\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nFor ten generations, the Bourgeois family has dedicated its passion and values ​​to Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, becoming Sancerre's most renowned winemaker. The company is now led by the current generation of the family – Jean-Marie and Rémi Bourgeois. The winery is located in the village of Chavignol, and the vineyards are found in Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé. Each plot is isolated and cultivated according to its origins to reveal the most precise and true expression of its terroir, whether it be flint or limestone-clay soils. This is reflected in the impressive range of bottlings, many of which are among the most sought-after of their kind in the Loire Valley each year.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Ten months of maturation for La Bourgeoise Sancerre\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nDuring the harvest, only the ripest grapes are hand-picked and carefully brought to the cellar. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes are immediately pressed. After settling at cold temperatures, part of the wine is fermented in thermoregulated stainless steel tanks and the rest in French oak barrels. La Bourgeoise is patiently aged for 9 to 10 months on its fine lees in oak barrels, with periodic hand-stirring of the lees.\n\n\n\n The result is this La Bourgeoise, with its flint aromas and spicy bouquet. It is rich in fruit, full-bodied, well-balanced, and strongly reminiscent of Sauvignon blanc and grape. The richness and intensity of the flavor linger long and harmoniously on the palate. This prestigious selection has excellent bottle aging potential and will continue to evolve over 10 to 12 years.","brand":"Vinites","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775785734223,"sku":"9620","price":35.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/HenriBourgeoisLaBourgeoiseES-56EoceneSilexSancerre.webp?v=1759387179"},{"product_id":"henri-bourgeois-sancerre-dantan","title":"Henri Bourgeois Sancerre d'Antan","description":"The Cuvée d'Antan, one of Henri Bourgeois' flagship wines, is made from the estate's highest flint-containing slopes, in the village of Saint-Satur.

This magnificent estate in Chavignol is one of the leading wineries in the Sancerre region. Founded by Henri Bourgeois, his children and grandchildren have continued its growth. Today, the tenth generation of the Bourgeois family is at the helm. Using grapes sourced partly from their own vineyards (70 hectares) and partly from purchased grapes, the Bourgeois family produces exemplary and classic Sancerres. They also produce wines from grapes grown outside of Sancerre. The family is also active in Pouilly-Fumé, Menetou-Salon, Quincy, and Coteaux du Giennois, among others.\n\n\n \nThese are true terroir wines. The grapes are harvested entirely by plot, fermented, and aged separately. This way, each wine's origin is clearly visible. Yields are kept low, down to 50 hectoliters per hectare, and even less if possible. The soil where these Sauvignon Blanc grapes are grown consists of calcareous clay. This produces a wine with distinct elegance, freshness, and delicious fruit. After harvest, the grapes are carefully selected and pressed. They are then aged for several months in stainless steel on fine lees.
