The Domaine du Pré Semelé vineyards are primarily located on the slopes of Maimbray and Sury-en-Vaux, and on a smaller scale in the communes of Verdigny and Menetou-Ratel. All twenty hectares are farmed organically, divided into seventy parcels. The soils are clay and limestone based of which 70% are terres blanches (Kimmeridgian marl) and 30% is caillottes (Portlandian limestone). Pré du Semelé is the name of the specific winery location in the cooler north of Sancerre and is today run by 4th generation brothers Julien and Clément Raimbault. All wines are 100% Domaine grown, with 80% being planted to sauvignon blanc and 20% to pinot noir.
