Owner and winemaker Philippe Raimbault finds himself in the charmed position of owning top class vineyards that straddle both banks of the Loire River in Pouilly-Fumé and Coteaux du Giennois. His outstanding Sancerre’s are made from exceptional hand-picked fruit, grown on soils that date back 130 million years to the Jurassic period and that are perfect for producing supreme Sauvignon Blanc.
