Henri Bourgeois 2008 Jadis Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
Very rich style of wine from 50-year-old vines. It is smooth, opulent almost, packed with pure pink grapefruit along with an herbal, grassy character. Concentration is the hallmark of this fine wine.

Henri Bourgeois 2008 Le M.D. de Bourgeois Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Cellar Selection
- $36
The initials refer to the vineyard of Mont Damné, the steepest vineyard in Sancerre. The wine reflects the stony character of the soil, coming through with great intensity. It is powerful, flinty, with a biting citrus character, deliciously taut and intense.

Henri Bourgeois 2008 Sancerre d’Antan Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Online Exclusive
Unfined, unfiltered, wood aged, this wine was created as a tribute to old-style Sancerre. With its intensity and definite wood aging character, it is certainly different. It retains the green fruit character of pure Sauvignon Blanc while offering a more oxidative richness.

Henri Bourgeois 2005 Le MD de Bourgeois Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $24
Gorgeous, concentrated, ripe fruit show both the quality of this wine and the extra warmth of 2005. The MD is the top cuvée from the Bourgeois vineyard. It’s dense and ripe, with almost exotic fruit flavors, and finishes generous and fruity. Imported by Monsieur Touton Selection Ltd.

Henri Bourgeois 2009 Le M.D. de Bourgeois Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
This is great Sancerre from the Monts Damnés vineyard. It shows all the right varietal character, stylized by initial austerity, flint and a dense texture. Gradually it opens up to show a balance of acidity and richness.

Henri Bourgeois 2008 Domaine Gérard Fiou Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $22
An intensely mineral expression of Sauvignon Blanc, crisp, full of citrus flavors, deliciously fresh, but also complex. The wine is concentrated into a steel spring of ripeness, ready to burst from the glass.
— R.V.

Henri Bourgeois 2008 La Demoiselle de Bourgeois Sauvignon Blanc (Pouilly-Fumé)
- $38
The clay soil of Pouilly gives extra richness to this wine, a creamy texture supporting pear and green plum fruits, with a delicious crushed herb aroma. It is powerful, very concentrated, needing 4–5 years aging.
— R.V.

Henri Bourgeois 2008 La Bourgeoise Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Online Exclusive
Made from old vines and partially fermented in wood, this is a complex wine, offering plenty of pure white fruits. It is very precise in character, crisp, tangy, the edge of wood just a hint.
— R.V.
