This tiny 6.5 hectare domaine in the Loire was started by Emile Balland in 1999. The Ballands have been making wines in the Loire since 1650 and his father was instrumental in achieving recognition for the young AOC Coteaux du Giennois in the 1980s. Produced from vineyards on the slopes of the Loire river at Bonny and Beaulieu and is a complex wine with great finesse at an everyday price and is Sancerre in all but name. Crisp on the palate with lemon zest, gooseberries and yellow plums making it great with pan roasted cod, kale and beurre blanc sauce.
