Domaine Fouassier

Established over centuries, Domaine Fouassier is a venerable winery located in the heart of France's Loire Valley. Stretching across over 56 hectares, this boutique winery, meticulously maintained by the Fouassier family for ten generations, is indeed a testament to their unwavering dedication to pristine winemaking.

Domaine Fouassier prides itself for its unwavering adherence to biodynamic farming. Their grapevines, some of which are well over a century old, have been nurtured in alignment with the lunar and solar calendars. The use of organic manure and herbal infusions have ensured the preservation of the soil's integrity. No chemical fertilisers, pesticides or weedkillers blemish their fertile terrain, assuring the harvest of healthy, ripe fruits, loaded with character.

Possessing a deep reverence for nature, the Fouassier family employs natural methods throughout the winemaking process. The harvested grapes undergo natural fermentation; no yeasts or foreign substances interfere with the process. The resultant wine provides an unadulterated expression of the terroir's unique characteristics, and a pleasingly nuanced showcase of the vintage's personality.

Their Sancerre wines are particularly recognised for their richness and finesse. Their blanc variety, made with Sauvignon Blanc gives way to eminent floral and fruity notes, underpinned by an appreciable minerality. The rouge, produced from Pinot Noir, features mature red fruit aromas that delightfully harmonise with the firm but elegant tannic structure. Select vintages
