Sancerre wines are rich and diverse. From two grape varieties and three terroirs, each winemaker leaves his mark on the wine he produces through his cultural choices and his oenological practices in order to produce HIS own version of Sancerre. Our estate is located at the bottom of the village of Reigny, in Crézancy-en-Sancerre, surrounded by a cirque of hills of Kimeridgian clay-limestone marl. The plots located on these slopes are sunny all day long, and the vines planted there sink their roots into the springs that run in the subsoil. The juices from these plots are ample, round and delicious. We also have a few plots on the village plateau, from a terroir of Kiméridgian morello cherries, which brings great minerality to the grapes. Finally, the last plots are located on the Crézancy-en-Sancerre plateau, on Oxfordian cobblestones, which produces very fruity wines. We work the vines while trying to respect nature as much as possible and preserve the vines in order to get the best out of our grape varieties and our terroir. Thus the soil is worked from the end of winter, which allows us to let it breathe while abandoning the use of weedkillers. The harvest is done by hand, by a team of seasonal workers, most of whom are used to harvesting at the estate. In the cellar, Simon, a trained oenologist, monitors his wines, trying to act on them as little as possible. Curious by nature, he has set himself the goal of trying a winemaking experiment per vintage in order to enrich his knowledge of Sauvignon, Pinot Noir and the Sancerre terroir. For example, he has already tested the vinification of his whites in oak or acacia barrels, in tuns made of the same wood, that of the rosé in acacia barrels or even the fermentation of the red directly in barrels in order to blend the notes of the wood into the wine. On the Reigny cirque with soil dating from the Upper Kimmeridgian, there is the part facing due south on more calcareous ground dedicated to whites and the part facing south-west on more clayey soil dedicated to reds. Chant de l'Archet comes from this second part. Two plots make it up: the place called La Vallée de la Côte located in the middle of the upper slope bringing freshness and saltiness, and the place called La Panquenelle located in the middle of the lower slope bringing delicacy and substance. Our work aims to be as respectful as possible to transcribe as accurately as possible the influence of the terroir on these old vines. For 20 months the wine will grow in barrels then in vats to develop its expression and guarantee it a good aging in your cellars.
