COMMENT
This is a long-established maison in Sancerre, a famous wine-producing region in the Loire region, which has been in business since 1850. The maison owns many vineyards with "silex" soil, where the best wines in Sancerre are made, and produces wines that can be aged for a long time, with an emphasis on terroir.
