Description: The quest to create the best Sauvignon Blanc through innovation and experimentation while embracing and respecting the values and spirit of the appellation is the philosophy of Villebois in a nutshell. The modernist approach discards dogmas and beliefs and is a guarantee of quality, a seal of confidence without ever replacing the notion of terroir and the intrinsic identity ​​of the appellations. The spirit of Villebois is the ability to combine the most modern techniques with the noblest soils, only to question everything the following year. This is a permanent, exciting and fascinating quest…with the only gauge being the ability to capture you with every glass! Every sip tells a story.

Through each stage of this journey, and dependent on the parcel, its soil and exposure, our winemakers who cultivate it and the traditions encompassed by it, one single varietal takes center stage and that is the Sauvignon Blanc grape.

From the hillsides of the Cher region to the vine parcels of Sologne and Touraine, without forgetting the foothills of Sancerre, this varietal shows itself to be as magnificent as the regal river that runs alongside the domain’s vines: alive, energetic, unpredictable, and majestic.

To preserve its fermentation flavors, the newly made wine is aged in stainless steel tanks, on its fine lees during 6 months. It is bottled in the spring following the harvest.

Tasting Notes: A big and smooth structure. An harmonious blend reminiscent of the taste of ripe Sauvignon Blanc berries. A savory Sauvignon blanc de France grown on carefully selected terroirs.

Pairing: Great to enjoy with cold meats, seafood and (goat) cheeses.
