Domaine Sautereau

Domaine Sautereau is a family estate in the Sancerre appellation, with 22 hectares spread across the best-known communes of this stretch of the upper Loire. The vineyards sit mainly around Crezancy, with smaller plots in Bue and the surrounding villages, covering the flint, chalk, and clay soils that give Sancerre its variety of textures.

Sautereau makes Sauvignon Blanc in the direct, mineral Sancerre style: dry, crisp, and genuinely refreshing. Honest, well-priced Loire white from a producer who knows these soils well.
