*Pick up orders are available next day for pick upBased in Verdigny, the Cherrier brothers farm 20 hectares of vines spread over five different villages around Sancerre, as well as 10 hectares of vines in Menetou-Salon. The diversity of vineyard sites allows them to blend Sauvignon Blanc from the three types of soil typical of the region, which creates harmonious and balanced wines. Silex (flint) brings minerality and flintiness, while Terre Blanche, or Kimmeridgean marl (clay with limestone underneath) brings richness, and Caillottes (gravelly limestone) brings acidity.
Vinification is done using cold stabilization and temperature-controlled fermentations by soil type. Wines are then left on the lees to age in stainless steel tanks before final blending to create Cherrier’s classic and archetypal Sancerre Blanc.
