PASCAL JOLIVET

Founded in 1987, Pascal Jolivet has become one of the Loire Valley’s most dynamic and recognizable names, renowned for producing pure, precise, and terroir-driven wines. Based in Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, the estate is dedicated to expressing the unique character of Sauvignon Blanc in its most authentic form.

From the beginning, Pascal Jolivet championed a philosophy of minimal intervention, favoring natural yeasts, slow fermentations, and limited use of oak to let each vineyard site speak clearly. His approach highlights freshness, minerality, and balance, qualities that have become the hallmark of his wines and set a new benchmark for modern Loire Sauvignon Blanc.

The estate cultivates vineyards across the rolling limestone and flint-rich soils of Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, and Touraine, each plot contributing its own nuance—whether citrus-driven, smoky, or floral. Key cuvées such as Sancerre Blanc, Pouilly-Fumé, and single-vineyard bottlings like “Le Chêne Marchand” reveal both the diversity and finesse of Jolivet’s range. The winery also produces expressive rosés and a limited selection of reds from Pinot Noir.

Widely recognized for their elegance and drinkability, Pascal Jolivet wines are found on fine dining lists around the world, appealing to both seasoned connoisseurs and new wine lovers alike. With a clear vision and consistent style, the estate has positioned itself as one of the Loire Valley’s most influential ambassadors.
