  • Gold, Gilbert & Gaillard International Competition, 2021

We're delighted with Noël Bougrier’s new release Le Fief and so were the judges, who awarded it Gold. It's all Pinot Noir, just like delectable (and pricy) red Sancerre. Classic Loire, with crushed raspberries, ripe red cherry and subtle spice.

We've worked with the Bougrier family in the Loire for over 20 years and still they come up with some terrific wine surprises. The bright fruit of their new release Pinot Noir is just one. The family has dominated the Loire Valley for six generations and are one of the few cellars to cover the entire region, from Nantes to Sancerre. The current patriarch, Noël Bougrier, masterfully leads their award winning operations, aiming to capture an authentic expression of the grape and its vineyard in every wine. Harvesting in the cool early morning, delicate handling and cool fermentation ensure freshness and elegant fruit. Exactly what you want from a Loire Pinot Noir. It's a class glass solo or with charcuterie, chicken kebabs or soft cheeses.

"Another star from the Bougriers! Enjoy this bright and fruity Pinot Noir, delightfully easy going" Sarah Everden
