Since 2019, Jeanne Germain has been following in her father's footsteps, producing a micro-cuvée of 'natural' Cabernet Franc: working the soil with animal traction, organic and biodynamic vineyard management, gentle extractions and no added sulfur. A crisp wine, "with serene and sincere fruit and a delightful finish" for the Revue du Vin de France.

Quietly since his arrival at the head of the 11 ha of the family estate in the 90s, Vincent Gaudry has traced his path in search of the most precise and distinctive aromatic expressions of the grape variety and the terroir. His whites, with their aniseed tones (fennel), are vibrant and stimulating, while his reds have a delicate fullness that makes them noble. Radiant wines that do not give in to the fashion of modern Sancerre, too exotic and plump to be sincere.

Promoted two stars in the Revue du Vin de France's 2025 guide.

The entry-level Le Tournebride is a blend of 3 parcels of flint, clay-limestone and caillottes (limestone chips). Mélodie de Vieilles Vignes, fatter and richer, comes from a clay-limestone hillside while Constellation du Scorpion, more complex and marked by flint, has a tense, long and salivating finish.

Les Vignes de Chavignol is a new cuvée (from 2022), 60-year-old vines on clay-limestone terroir, vinified in whole bunches and aged 12 months in barrels and 6 months in vats, delicately fruity (Morello cherry) and full-bodied, one of the greatest Pinot Noirs of the Sancerre region!

Vinified in whole bunches, Les Garennes is refined and elegant, silky and ripe on the palate, with great length and no feeling of heaviness. A great pinot noir!

The Barmès children, Maxime and Sophie, have taken up with application and conviction the work initiated by their father (who died accidentally in 2011): organic (certified since 2001) and biodynamic farming, manual work as much as possible, no additives (neither yeast, nor chaptalization, nor fining) other than sulphur in minimal quantities. A single priority: to obtain the best climatic and geological expression of each of the 7 parcels of the estate (4 "villages" and 3 grands crus). Their Rieslings, with great ageing potential, are absolutely exemplary.

Steingrubler, great finesse and length, clay-limestone soil on granite ridge. 

The Barmès children, Maxime and Sophie, have continued the work begun by their father (who died accidentally in 2011) with dedication and conviction: organic (certified since 2001) and biodynamic viticulture, manual work wherever possible, no additives (no yeasting, no chaptalisation, no fining) other than sulphur in minimal quantities.

Although the aromatic exuberance of Gewurztraminer is often used to produce sweet wines, this is a "tender" wine, vinified with an emphasis on tension, and sparing residual sugars.

Made from vines that are almost 40 years old and matured for 10 months in barrels, this elegant Pinot Noir has a stature that rivals the Burgundy pinots.

The estate is as traditional (confiscated from the Carthusian monks during the Revolution and sold as 'national property' to the Pignier family in 1794) as it is avant-garde (biodynamic cultivation since 1998, Demeter certification since 2003). The vineyard (14 hectares in the commune of Montaigu) stretches over clay, limestone and marl soils, planted with red grape varieties (mainly Trousseau and a little Poulsard) on the southern exposures, and white grape varieties (Chardonnay and Gamay Blanc) on the north/north-east exposures. The entire range is a perfect expression of the purity, spontaneity and authenticity that are the hallmarks of Jura wines. Rated two stars in the Revue du Vin de France's 2024 guide.

The Gamay blanc, an old strain of Chardonnay, is matured for 18 months in barrels, with regular topping up for more fruit and freshness.
