The cliffs and the ocean are just a dive away. What does the village of Sacy have in common with the depths of the Atlantic? Geological history.

Limescale is known for leaving a salty footprint in the Champagne region. Microscopic plankton, sea shells, seaweed and various creatures compressed over hundreds of millions of years… A phenomenon that’s still happening at 60 meters under the sea level, off the Brittany coast (North-West coast of France). It is not surprising that wines are starting to appear from this terroir. Are you ready to take a deep dive back to the beginning of time?

Against Winds and Tides

When it comes to tides Sacy is quite calm. Around the isle of Ouessant it is a completely different story. This gift-box gives you the opportunity to compare for yourself the impact of immersion on wine.

Two strictly identical cuvées: the same vintage year, the same batch of bottling, the same date of disgorgement. One remains patiently in the cellar at Sacy, and the other one takes off to Brittany to be swept by the currents as it is immerged 60 meters under the sea level.

The result of the latter: A subtle chalky imprint with a gust of iodine freshness. Astonishing!
