The Lauverjat family has been farming in Sancerre for generations, but mother-and-son team Karine and Kevin own vines just over the hill in Menetou-Salon: same Kimmeridgian limestone, none of the price creep. They bring the accumulated Sancerre know-how with them, farming sustainably, skipping herbicides and pesticides, even treating the vines with seaweed. The fruit comes from 26- to 30-year-old vines and ferments in stainless steel to keep everything bright and unadorned. This is not a budget shortcut, it's a Sancerre family's read on their neighbor's terroir, made with the same care. If you've been priced out of your usual bottle, this is the other side of the hill.

More about Kevin et Karine Lauverjat

The Lauverjat family has been based in Sancerre for generations. They know how to make mineral-driven Sauvignon Blanc in the Loire. But the mother-son team running the joint (Karine and Kevin) have a few vines in Menetou where they apply their accumulated wisdom: sustainably farming, no herbicides or pesticides, and even seaweed treatments to combat disease. This isn’t just a budget shortcut; it’s a Sancerre family’s take on their neighbor’s terroir, made with the same care and expertise.
