Rooted in the hills of Verdigny for generations, the Godon-Reverdy family has always worked this land — first in service to the Lords of Verdigny, then the cathedral of Bourges, and finally for themselves. The slopes, trees, and fields have shaped the winery's identity, walked by the parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents before them. It was after World War II that their great-grandfather, Amédée Reverdy, became a winemaker — not by plan, but by providence and a fateful draw of the short straw. Since then, each generation has built on that legacy.
Today, Domaine de la Garenne cultivates 12.5 hectares across 37 carefully managed plots in the Sancerre AOC, a renowned Centre-Loire appellation recognized since 1936 for whites and 1959 for reds and rosés. They grow Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, producing dry white, red, and rosé wines shaped by the region's oceanic climate and diverse soils. Their vineyards span three key soil types: Caillottes (chalky and vibrant), Clay-siliceous (flinty and mineral), and Terres Blanches (rich clay-limestone offering fruit and length). Embracing organic and biodynamic practices, they are committed to working in harmony with nature, letting each terroir express itself fully in the wines. In a region of 366 passionate winegrowers and 2,999 hectares under vine, the estate remains a proud family story — one of heritage, resilience, and a profound love of the land.

This is a generous, tidy and textbook Sancerre hitting all the right notes for sauvignon blanc from this famous upper Loire appellation. The nose is just generous enough to transmit classic grapefruit, nettle, mineral and green pear fruit. It is light to medium bodied, delicate yet fairly taut with a touch of warmth (13% abv). The finish is dry and nicely chalky mineral. The length is excellent. Very cohesive. Price is a bit of a bump but still a value proposition. Tasted May 2025.

Straight from the Sancerre handbook with all three essential soils below and behind a most righteous and ultra correct white wine. Predominantly Caillottes calcaires (72 percent) with Terres Blanches argilo-calcaires (20) and Silex (8) for tripartite sauvignon blanc based on treble, like sounds and instruments that emphasize the high-frequency range of Sancerre audio-ness, played to our palates in brightness, clarity and detail. The terroirs are like violins, flutes, and cymbals, the range of flavours a sibilance in vocals. Top shelf soil, sound and vision from the Alliance. Drink 2025-2031. Tasted May 2025.

This is a lovely, well-balanced and even-keeled Sancerre with evident ripeness and depth but also a ballast of acids and no shortage of freshness, including a point of bitterness that really draws things together and extends the finish admirably. There's also plenty of stones to keep the terroir purists happy, indeed leading the way over subtle limey fruit with a lick of clover honey, the light, fresh, green kind. A delicious wine in the final analysis, best from 2026. Tasted May 2025.
