About the wine
- More than just a label, when we say ‘prestige’ we mean ‘prestige’. And boy oh boy does this delicious Loire Sauvignon deserve its name...
- Classic, refined and dry. This wine is practically a Sancerre. Except it’s not. Because that would be illegal.
- 91% of 28,000 Angels told us they loved the previous Villebois vintages and would definitely buy them again. Well the good news is that Joost has surpassed himself and the 2011 are the BEST yet and ready for drinking right NOW...

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Joost de Villebois
Years Angel-funded: 2013-18
- Joost knows how to preserve the heritage of the Loire region while catering to new world consumers.
- He started out in the '90s, producing 2 barrels a year in an old farmhouse... now, with Villebois, he highlights all the best parts of French whites, 24/7. And he passed the Angel torch to his lead winemaker, Patrice Grasset- who makes the Loire Valley wines you love today!
- Winemaking's a real team effort, Joost says. He's so glad to have had you on part of his!
