The Roger family descends from a long line of growers from the village of Bué dating back to the early 17th century. Jean-Max Roger took over the four hectares of vines left to him by his parents in the early 1970s. Today, he runs the estate with his two sons Etienne and Thibault. This cuvée is made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown in vineyard parcels with a couple of different soil type – Caillottes and Kimmeridgian Marl. The Caillottes give the wine its floral and fruity notes along with its lightness and freshness. The terres blanches - Kimmeridgian marl - provide structure, richness and grassy minerality.

Pairings: Grilled pork or chicken in an herbed-butter sauce
