Sebastien Vaillant

Valencay has only recently achieved AOC status (from 2002 vintage) but is well known in France for its beautiful Chateau, its pyramid shaped goat's cheese and for gunflint. It is this soil, at the western end of the strip of terrain that surfaces to the east in Pouilly and Sancerre, that gives the captivating mineral quality to all the best wines made from this area, including the Valencay.
