history
Vignoble Gitton is a family-owned estate founded in 1945 by Marcel and Huguette Gitton with just half a hectare of vines. Over three generations, the domaine has grown to around 33 hectares across Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, and Coteaux du Giennois. Today, Pascal and Denise Gitton, together with their daughter Chanel, craft authentic, terroir-driven wines that highlight the diversity of Sancerre’s limestone and flint soils. Each parcel is vinified separately, reflecting the estate’s long-standing commitment to precision, tradition, and the pure expression of Sauvignon Blanc.
Vineyard
This wine originates from the Clos Joanne d’Orion vineyard, planted on soil that combines marl and flint. The terroir lends the wine both delicacy and minerality, with a firm acid backbone.
Winemaking
The grapes are pressed, cold settled, and then fermented at controlled temperatures to preserve aromatics and freshness. The wine is made in a delicate style, aiming for elegance rather than heavy oak influence.
Tasting notes
Clos Joanne d’Orion shows a delicate nose with floral and violet hints, backed by the smoky minerality typical of flinty soils. On the palate, the wine is noble and long, with a fine acid structure and lingering finish.
Food pairing
It pairs beautifully with seafood, shellfish, and white-fleshed fish, as well as with goat cheeses and lighter poultry dishes.
