Henri Bourgeois Sancerre Jadis 2023 - 750ml

Winemaker Notes

Bright green gold. Exotic fruits, green mango, citrus, honey and menthol notes Powerful, round and harmonious; remarkable length on the palate; surprisingly refreshing thanks to its great minerality. A reminder of a sea that once was and is

no more, 'Jadis' has a crystalline, sun-kissed gold color, underpinned by exotic notes of mango and a hint of sea air. The full-bodied palate is a delicious blend of ripe citrus fruits and salty hints of oyster shells. The fresh, light finish is the result of rigorously precise ageing.

Works wonderfully well with fish, shellfish, white meat or sweet and savory recipes.

Winery Notes

The Famille Bourgeois has been in love with Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc for 11th generation. The domain covers 72 hectares on the best Terroir of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé appellations. Brought to fruition by Henri Bourgeois over 50 years ago, the vineyards lie on some of the most rugged hillside terrains, offering the best exposures in the Loire Valley. From cultivating two hectares on the slopes of Chavignol, Henri took the audacious step in the 1950s of developing his vineyards in an as yet unknown area. His sons, Jean-Marie and Rémi, joined him in the 1960s and continued the adventure. They discovered new terroirs, bought land, developed partnerships with other Sancerre families, and turned themselves into the #1 ambassador of Sancerre in France, then abroad.
