The vineyards of Menetou-Salon span across 500 hectares and are renowned for their Sauvignon Blanc, which produces dry, white wines, and Pinot Noir, which produces red and rosé wines. The wines of Menetou-Salon share similarities with those from the neighboring Sancerre region, but are typically more affordable. They are also known for their distinct aromatic profile that features mineral and flint notes, a direct result of the region’s limestone soils.
