In France, Saint Bris is much sought-after, but thankfully it remains under-the-radar in the UK, making these wines a real coup when it comes to quality and pedigree of terroir. Soils are either Portland or Kimmeridgian and the village is full of 11th and 12th century cellars. Bersans barrel cellar, carrying the name of the domaine above the door is particularly lovely - the perfect place to age fine wine. PRACTICES VINEYARD & VINIFICATION Crafted by hand using organic methods, the wine comes from clay-limestone hillside vineyards that lend both structure and elegance. Fermentation is carried out with natural yeasts to preserve the purity of the fruit and expression of terroir with vinification taking place in tanks to maintain freshness and precision.
