The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A discreet address undergoing a renaissance, Domaine Régis Jouan is nestled on the flint and white soils of Sancerre. Spanning approximately 4 hectares of vines, plus an additional hectare in Menetou-Salon, all farmed organically, the estate crafts straightforward and precise cuvées. These are primarily sold for export and produced in small quantities.
Wine A classic of the appellation, the 2022 white Sancerre from Domaine Régis Jouan presents a fresh nose, typical of Sauvignon, with hints of white pepper. Its fine structure, marked by great freshness, displays tension and precision in remarkable balance. A beautiful white wine to enjoy today as an aperitif or at the table, and it can be kept for another five years.
Vinification Mechanical harvesting, vinification in stainless steel vats and ageing on fine lees.
