Anthony Girard

Located south of Sancerre, La Clef du Récit estate was created in 2012 by Anthony Girard. After numerous experiences in the universe of vines and wine, Anthony Girard took possession of the keys to a wine estate in the hamlet of Récy. He expanded his estate to 8.5 hectares, planted with Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. Precision, purity and poise are the hallmarks of the Domaine which allows the full and true expression of the grape and terroir.

Loire Valley

The Loire Valley in France is a prestigious wine region renowned for its diverse wines and picturesque landscapes. Stretching along the Loire River, it benefits from a varied climate and a range of soil types, ideal for viticulture. It is particularly famous for its white wines, including the crisp and mineral-rich Sauvignon Blanc from Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, and the aromatic Chenin Blanc from Vouvray and Saumur. The area also produces excellent reds, such as the light and fruity Cabernet Franc from Chinon and Bourgueil. Rosé and sparkling wines, like Crémant de Loire, add to the diversity of the region. With its rich winemaking heritage, varied terroirs, and high-quality wines, the Loire Valley offers an exceptional experience for wine enthusiasts seeking both classic and innovative wines.
