The “Champs de Cri” is an important parcel of 2.3 hectares known in Les Loges as the site that produces the most elegant and long-lived of the wines of this appellation. Gaudry takes a no-nonsense approach to vinification and aging, seeking to spotlight the chiseled mineral character of Sauvignon Blanc grown in these soils. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel without designer yeasts; malolactic fermentation does not occur, thereby allowing the wines to retain their linearity and cut; aging takes place on the fine lees; and the wines are gently bottled the summer following harvest.
