The estate
Originating from a family tradition dating back to 1696, the estate Henri Bourgeois has been managed by Jean-Marie, Arnaud, Lionel and Jean-Christophe Bourgeois since 2004. Established on the terroirs of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, the estate mainly cultivates Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir on emblematic plots such as La Côte des Monts Damnés. A pioneer of organic farming in the region, the estate produced its first 100% organic vintage in 2023, aiming to reveal the unique expression of the Sancerrois Kimmeridgian soils.
