For 10 generations, the Bourgeois family has been winemakers from father to son to grandson, as if ad aeternam. In 1950, the estate, which consisted of only 2 hectares, was enlarged. Since then, over the years, Henri Bourgeois, his sons and grandsons, have built up a vineyard of 65 hectares, judiciously distributed over the hillsides of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé. The different types of soil such as flint, Kimmeridgian marl, limestone, clay-limestone, sandy-gravelly, sandy-silt, silt and tuffeau offer rare specificities in the mouth. White Sancerre, pouilly-fumé, sauvignon blanc, menetou-salon, red sancerre, rosé sancerre, are pronounced ranges that give rise to beautiful restaurant combinations. We will stop at present on the pouilly-fumé, elected of our heart by its very distinct aroma but also being rare as for the beautiful quality which one owes towards, thus "La Demoiselle de Bourgeois" combines elegance and presence making of this wine whose vintage is bottled only after one year, a model of pure and delicate expression of the white Sauvignon. The Sauvignon Blanc called "Sancerre d'Antan" is not to be overlooked, especially as it is unfiltered and its fruity and mineral nuances are drawn from the exceptional flinty soil of the village of Saint-Satur. There is a tasting room open almost every day of the year, cellar visits on request... Also a restaurant nearby, run by a family member.

The Domaine Henri Bourgeois is on the move! Without appeal: INEVITABLE!
