Fun Facts: St-Bris is a tiny appellation (100H), and the only one in Burgundy that allows Sauvignon Blanc as its main white variety. With the 2016 vintage, the De Moors have chosen to declassify the wine to Vin de France and call it Sans Bruit ("without sound"). The label looks exactly the same and we're guessing the new name was chosen because it sounds exactly the same when spoken quickly.
