Wine Description

This beautiful white Sancerre of Domaine Hubert Brochard hails from the rolling slopes of Chavignol. The wine name is a tribute to the Brochard family ancestors , whose winemaking methods are still in use today: zero fining, cooling, or filtration, with pure aging on the lees in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks to give this wine its character. This is an ideal wine for toasting with friends and family.
