Emile Balland Croq Caillotte ‘La Louisonne’ Sancerre Red

This tiny 6.5 hectare domaine in the Loire was started by Emile Balland in 1999. The Ballands have been making wines in the Loire since 1650 and his father was instrumental in achieving recognition for the young AOC Coteaux du Giennois in the 1980s. La Louisonne is a fruity and dry Sancerre red.
