Domaine Bailly-Reverdy produces classic, letter-perfect Sancerre. The domaine was created in 1988 but the vineyards have been in the family since the turn of the century. The current generation, led by Franck Bailly, and his nephew Aurelien, has continued the family’s tradition and improved upon it with remarkable consistency and quality.
A blend of two of Chavignol’s various geological elements – two thirds of the blend is from clay-limestone based soils with the remainder sourced from rocky limestone soils. About 5% of the total blend is aged in neutral barrels, with the rest aged on its lees for 4 to 5 months in stainless steel.
