Overview of the Wine
Following the extension of the Domaine by Monsieur Jean NAUDET in 1985 the Société Civile d'Exploitation Viticole came into being with his son Michel as its head.
The property is situated in Sury-en-Vaux, a viticultural commune six kilometres from Sancerre.
Today the Domaine makes wines from Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir.
- The highest hills of the area are made of the white soils – limestone clay that produces racy and well-structured wines, and they are chiefly based in the commune of Sury-en-Vaux.
- The communes of Verdigny and Bué have have very stony slopes made up of small pebbles, high in limestone and giving fine wines, light and fruity.
- The commune of Saint-Satur has soils rich in flint producing meaty wines, well held together, with a characteristic bouquet.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
Colour: A pale colour with salmon highlights.
Nose: A good intensity on the nose, with floral notes and a touch of peach fruit.
Mouth: the attack is tender, the mid palate is round, with just the right amount of firmness. Aromas of caramel and liquorice give it a vinous character. Good freshness at the end showing grapefruit and blood orange.
Pairing: a perfect summer wine, excellent with barbeque and cold meats. The finesse of this wine will show itself with poultry in sauce, notably with a light curry.
