Named for their ancestral family of Sourdois, and one of three Sourdois sons named Jean, who was eventually dubbed Jean-Bon, or the Good John. Today, the mother-daughter duo of Beatrice Sourdois-Lacourt and Clemence Lacourt carry out the family legacy and tend to the land meticulously. They produce fine and fragrant eaux de vie from 100% Bacco grapes that are aged in oak barrels in a traditional cellar on property.\u003cbr\u003eThis barrel from 1996 was one of the final casks tasted late into the evening of a particularly challenging trip for the OADE team.
