Jean-Paul and Magali Balland have, for thirty-five years, patiently developed the family estate; now cultivating 24 hectares of Sancerre appellation (18 hectares of Sauvignon grapes; 6 hectares of Pinot). They now run their vineyard, situated on the hillsides of Bué, with their two daughters, Isabelle and Elise.

As soon as harvested, the Sauvignon grapes are pressed in a pneumatic press and separated from the musts, the temperature during the fermentation is carefully controlled to give the wine bloom and elegance. With gold pale tints and a bouquetl of bush peach and grapefruits, the vintage 2007 is dry, nervous and harmonious, fresh.
