For 10 generations, we have offered our passion and values as winegrowers to develop Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Noirs of great character. Each member of our family, Jean-Marie Bourgeois, Arnaud, Lionel and Jean-Christophe, bring their talent to the Domaine. Established in Chavignol, in the heart of the best terroirs of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, we cultivate a mosaic of plots respecting our unique terroirs of Kimmeridgian Marl, Silex and Limestone Clays.
The Bourgeois family puts its passion and values as winegrowers at the service of its village: Chavignol, located only two hours drive from Paris. Nestled for the last ten generations at the foot of the “Côte des Monts Damnés” hill, the Estate offers suggestions for discovering the Sancerre area through its highly valued gastronomic specialities and tourist attractions.
Across a mosaic of several dozen plots of land spread across 72 hectares, Famille Bourgeois illustrates all the nuances of the flavours of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé.
The story of our family is told over ten generations of winegrowers. Men and women who cultivated both an attachment – to Sancerre, in the village of Chavignol – and the courage to uphold their art. However, most importantly: A commitment to revealing the great terroirs of the appellation.
