REGION: Loire

Domaine Pastou is located in the commune of Sury-en-Vaux, a sleepy town located amidst the rolling hills in the Northern section of the Sancerre appellation. Jean-Marc Pastou and his son Romain make this perennial favorite, delivering mineral driven, lacy Sancerre of the highest caliber.

Jerome Choblet is the third generation to make wine at his family estate, in the Cotes de Grandlieu sub-appellation of Muscadet. His "Clos de la Senaigerie" is from vines grown within a true walled clos and is a racy, refreshing Muscadet of mouthwatering brightness and wonderful fruit purity.

Xavier Weisskopf founded Le Rocher des Violettes in 2005 after falling in love with Chenin and the vines of Montlouis. He works completely organically, allowing his old vine Chenin, Cab Franc, and Cot to express themselves through wines of incredible purity and precision.
