BIODYNAMIC

Keywords : Citrus / Freshness / Minerality

The wine : Domaine Fleuriet’s Tradition Blanc is a lively, expressive Sancerre that celebrates the freshness of Sauvignon Blanc. Lemon and grapefruit lead the way, followed by green apple, peach and pear, adding depth to its crisp, juicy fruit character. On the palate, a fine mineral backbone carries the flavours through to a mouthwatering finish that invites another sip. Equally enjoyable as an aperitif or alongside seafood or grilled fish, this white charms with its precision and effortless appeal. An elegant Sancerre brimming with energy!

The estate : Located in Menetou-Râtel, right next to Sancerre, the Domaine Fleuriet is managed by Mathieu and Benoit along with their father Bernard. With great friendliness and an extraordinary sense of hospitality, the two brothers and their father produce magnificent wines where the terroir is expressed with great clarity. Covering 30 hectares (mainly in AOC Sancerre but also in Menetou-Salon), Sauvignon reigns supreme here, accompanied by a little Pinot Noir. The estate has been certified Organic since 2016 and Demeter (biodynamics) since 2021. The winemaking is carried out with minimal intervention to allow the terroir to express itself (indigenous yeasts, minimal use of sulfur, etc.). The estate’s range is varied and each cuvée has its own unique identity. The only common point: the quality of the wines!
