J. de Villebois Sancerre Silex

Descending from an old French family that is established in the Netherlands since the 19th century, (where the V became a W) Joost and Miguela de Willebois are passionate about French culture and the Loire Valley. They settled in Touraine with their 4 sons in 1996, where they began the quest for excellence in creating the perfect expressions of Loire Terroir as J de Villebois. After successful professional careers spanning the globe, they now devote themselves fully to the expansion of J. de Villebois.

Their highly talented winemaking team lead by Technical director Patrice Merceron and winemaker Alberto Tonetto, crafts an amazing selection of Sauvignon Blanc wines from the fresh and accessible Val De Loire, through the subregional selections of Menetou Salon and Pouilly-Fumé, up to their linear and mineral Sancerre Blanc and topped by two immensely powerful wines from their ancient limestone Kimméridgienne soils ‘Silex’, & ‘Marnes Kimméridgiennes’. They also have a very accessible Pinot Noir, as well as the more Premium Sancerre Rouge (also pinot)
