After many experiences in the world of vine and wine, Anthony Girard took over in 2012 the keys to this vineyard in the hamlet of Récy.
Here are the beginnings of a beautiful story that, as the seasons go by, continues to tell the passion of the winemaker.
It is up to you to discover the chapters, which vintage after vintage, will continue to delight your taste buds.
Anthony leads a rigorous job in the vineyard, respectful
of the soils and the environment, in order to harvest
ripe grapes.The vines of Menetou-Salon, rooted in the commune of Morogues, flourish in the midst of Kimmeridgian era soils known as white lands.
As for the production of Sancerre, it is established 20% on soils similar to those of Morogues, which gives roundness and elegance to the wine. Length and minerality are provided by a flint soil (20%) that adds to 60% of soft limestone called "caillotes".In the cellar, a modern installation provides equipment allowing for quality work and meticulous winemaking in respect of traditions.
Anthony thus allows all his know-how to be expressed, acquired on the field and through his experiences around the world.

sancerre red wine
An exceptional Sancerre Rouge, both powerful and elegant.
Its deep ruby color reveals a complex nose with aromas of dark fruits and spices. On the palate, the attack is frank and structured, giving way to a broad and lingering roundness.
It pairs wonderfully with grilled red meats, roasted poultry, and charcuterie.

My wine reveals the greatest expressions of Sauvignon due to the Sancerre terroirs.
It is a blend of limestone land called "caillote" which gives it its freshness and fruitiness, and flint which imparts its power and minerality.
This wine will pair perfectly as an aperitif, with seafood, fish, and even with certain cheeses, such as crottin de Chavignol.
