Awarded 2 stars by the Revue du Vin de France—a leading French wine publication—Domaine Vincent Pinard is one of the crown jewels of Sancerre. Florent and Clément Pinard practice a refined, almost artistic approach to viticulture. Since 2018, they’ve been committed to biodynamic farming, always in harmony with their terroir and relentlessly focused on achieving optimal grape ripeness.
When the opportunity arose to work a small plot in the famed La Moussière vineyard, they seized it—setting up a dedicated négociant operation. From vineyard work to vinification, they handle every step themselves, just as meticulously as they do on their estate. By crafting wines in their signature “Pinard style,” they offer yet another compelling expression of their remarkable talent.
