2022 Raffaitin-Planchon - Sancerre

In a small hamlet named Amigny, Jean-Claude and his son Antoine farm 25 acres. Their land is partly made of “terres blanches” vineyards located closer to the village of Bué and partly of “Caillotes” parcels closer to Verdigny.

The terroir of the fifteen villages that make up the area of Sancerre is particularly unique in that the soil varies, so the wine flavors are slightly different.

For years the winery did not bottle much wines but mainly sold their grapes to more famous surrounding wineries.

Antoine who shows a clear talent for winemaking decided in 2016 to bottle cuvees from his best parcels of Amigny’s “Caillotes” which produces very floral wines with

cuvées from the “terres blanches” vineyards that bring structure and fuller body.

The result is a very complete, floral and full-bodied wine with a zest of mineral component.
