STORY BEHIND THE WINE
Domaine André Vatan is a family-run winery in Sancerre, Loire Valley, France, known for producing elegant Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir wines. Located in the village of Chavignol, the estate emphasizes traditional methods and terroir-driven expression, offering crisp, mineral-rich wines that reflect the region’s limestone and clay soils.
André inherited his vines from his father Jean and has cautiously expanded the business and invested in sophisticated new equipment. He is ably assisted by his wife Arielle and has no shortage of heirs with his children Aimée, Adrian and Antoine!
