The Boffants’ terroir is a unique South facing slope made of a 100% limestone soils “Caillottes”. Overlooked by an old restored windmill with a superb view on the Sancerre hill, “Les Boffants’ ” name originates from the old French word ” buffer” meaning strong wind hence the windmill.
This terroir gives rich and generous wines. The grapes ripen early in the season as the pebbly soils keep the daily heat; maturing the grapes at night.
