"CRU"SING WITH NATURE!

Pascal Jolivet

A VISIONARY NAMED PASCAL

He is one of the most dynamic ambassadors of wine in the world. “The Frenchman with impeccable grape DNA”- Pascal Jolivet - with generations of ‘Chefs des Cave’ behind him. 

And Pascal did just that - leave his family‘s traditions behind - to forge way beyond the future, in partnering with nature. As well as pioneering temperature-controlled viniļ¬cation, Pascal is one of the first to partner in organic viticulture, thus producing organic grapes that give Sancerre its pristine purity and distinct style - something Pascal is obsessed with.

NATURE GROWS ON YOU!

From his rebellious beginning in the early ’90s, his winery now spans over 145 hectares in Sancerre and Tourraine, producing over 1.5 million bottles with ( drum roll!) ... zero pesticides and herbicides. 

The result? A  highly praised historic "cru" of the Sancerre appellation that is extremely pure and refined. 100% Sauvignon Blanc grape variety - (America’s #1 go-to wine during the pandemic!) - this Le Chêne Marchand 2020 is adorned with a golden color, its complex nose oscillating between lemon zest and spicy and mineral notes.
