About the wine
Genuine Sancerre, the undisputed home of Sauvignon Blanc in France
- One of our BEST rated wines from one of our most popular winemakers, 91% of 28,000 UK and 90% of over 5,000 US customers loved the last Villebois vintages and told us they would definitely buy them again.
- Well, the good news is that Joost has surpassed himself and this delicious Sancerre (funded by Angels) is even better than the last.
- This is Sancerre but on a very good day. More exuberant, more fruity, more delicious. And ready for drinking right NOW.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Joost de Villebois
Years Angel-funded: 2013-18
- Joost knows how to preserve the heritage of the Loire region while catering to new world consumers.
- He started out in the '90s, producing 2 barrels a year in an old farmhouse... now, with Villebois, he highlights all the best parts of French whites, 24/7. And he passed the Angel torch to his lead winemaker, Patrice Grasset- who makes the Loire Valley wines you love today!
- Winemaking's a real team effort, Joost says. He's so glad to have had you on part of his!
