Background

History

Fournier are wine growers making classic Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé in their family winery. The Fournier family estate has grown from five hectares in 1950 to 60 hectares today. The wines can be described as herby, gunflint-smoky, combining appealing aromas with a refreshing crispness.

To return to Sancerre after a few years of trying other wines, it was a delight to be reminded why this wine is so acclaimed as a superb wine.
