Vincent Gaudry is one of Sancerre’s true originals — energetic, intuitive, and deeply committed to his land. After joining his father’s domaine in 1991, Vincent quickly questioned conventional farming. Following a severe reaction to chemical treatments, he made the radical decision to eliminate them entirely, becoming one of the first growers in Sancerre to farm organically, later converting fully to biodynamics in 2002. Today, the estate spans around 11 hectares, worked with great care and a strong focus on soil life and vineyard balance. Vincent draws inspiration from older generations of vignerons, shaping a range of wines that express Sancerre’s diverse terroirs — from limestone-clay slopes to flint-rich soils.
In the cellar, his approach is natural and precise: native yeast fermentations, long ageing on fine lees, and minimal intervention, with no fining or filtration. The result is a lineup of wines marked by energy, purity and texture, capturing both the vibrancy and depth of this classic Loire appellation.
Mostly one parcel in the lieu-dit La Rabotine, a west exposed slope on Kimmeridgian clay (terres blanches) in Sury-en-Vaux where the vines are 50 to 90yo. Ploughed by horse, the topsoil is no more than 30-40cm before reaching the limestone bedrock which is hard to penetrate for the roots. Vinified and aged in tronconic oak vats until bottling in July, it’s quite a step up from Tournebride, more restrained aromatically and more complex, deeply textured with a very intense mineral backbone.
