2023 · Sancerre Blanc Tradition

Domaine Roland Tissier et Fils is a three-generation, family-owned estate in Sancerre, Loire Valley. Roland Tissier took over the vineyards in 1972, and his sons Rodolphe and Florent now manage the estate and make the wines. The 11-hectare vineyard is planted mainly to Sauvignon Blanc, with Pinot Noir, on limestone-clay soils including flint-rich sites. Vines average 35 years old and are sustainably farmed, with some biodynamic practices. Production focuses on Sancerre blanc, alongside red and rosé wines and terroir-focused cuvées such as Etincelle, Saint-Benoît, and Etienne 1er. A new cellar built in 2004 expanded bottling capacity.
