‘Come and visit the underground cellars in chalk in Montlouis and in stony rocks in Bourgueil, you will be delighted!’
--Jacky Blot
Since he acquired some old vineyards in 1989, Jacky Blot has received many accolades for his stunning wines. He now works on 35 hectares in Montlouis , Vouvray and Bourgueil appellations. After being one of the greatest exponents of the Chenin, he has been developing all his skills on the Cabernet Franc in Bourgueil.
Benefiting from exceptional terroirs within the three appellations, he applies time-honoured methods and his attention to detail is meticulous.
His viticultural philosophy sees him working closely with nature; fertilisation is now an extinct practice, chemical treatments are practically non-existent. Blot brings a passion and exacting determination to make wines of only the highest quality.
