The Berthier vineyards include plots in Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, Menetou-Salon, and, since 2015, Coteaux du Giennois. Founded in 1983 by Jean-Marie Berthier, the family business has expanded significantly. Clément, the eldest son, joined the operation in 2012, and his brother Florian manages the vineyard. This new dynamic is both exciting and promising.
