Meet the Producer
Domaine Michel Girard et Fils comprises 21 hectares of vineyards across 30 parcels, with vines averaging 15 years old, producing precise, terroir-driven Sauvignon Blanc.
Production
This wine is sourced exclusively from two exceptional vineyards planted on Silex (flint) soils. Grapes from old vines are hand-picked and gently pressed, with fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Winemaker Philippe Girard crafted the wine, and the blend was selected with Boutinot to highlight the distinctive Silex terroir and character.
Tasting Notes
Opens with cool stone and earthy aromas. The palate is lively and expressive with pronounced minerality, subtle notes of gunsmoke, clean citrus acidity, and a hint of stone fruit, finishing long and persistent. Food match Decant before serving to release full aromatic potential. Pairs beautifully with shellfish, river fish such as trout or zander, or classic crottin goat cheeses. Grape Sauvignon Blanc 100%
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
