Domaine La Clef du Recit "La Chene Fourchu" Sancerre 2017
Reminding us of some of the magical $100 wines of famed Loire grower Didier Dagueneau, the 2017 Le Chene Fourchu is one of the most distinctive Sancerres we have ever featured!

(1/2020) Anthony Girard crafts this special wine from a one hectare parcel of 45-year-old vines growing in pure limestone soils. Following fermentation, he ages half of the wine in concrete amphora and half in wood barrels, some of which are new. The use of oak, which is rather unusual for the region, provides a creamy mouthfeel, rich texture and flavors of vanilla and spice that sit atop a classic Sancerre frame of chalky minerality, high-toned citrus fruit and lively, refreshing acidity. Sancerre drinkers will appreciate the purity of the core qualities of this wood-scented, velvety-textured bottling. There's something there too for those who love upper-tier white Bordeaux and even white Burgundy. This complex and delicious wine is outstanding now, and will continue to improve over the next 3-5 years.

Domaine Thomas et Fils "Le Pierrier" Sancerre 2018

(6/2020) This 2018 Sancerre is lovely and expressive, providing classic Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc zest and minerality. Dry, with tasty citrus, orchard and even tropical fruit notes. The wine is medium-plus in body with a creamy texture and high acidity. Long, and very fresh, this is a Sancerre worth your attention!

Domaine Girault "Le Grand Moulin" Sancerre 2019

Our Score
(7/2020) Sancerre is the most famous Sauvignon Blanc region in the world! Grapes grow near the famed Loire River in varying limestone based soils. The unique chalky flavors of Sancerre are part of what makes these high energy, peppery, citrusy, lip-smacking whites so appealing and so versatile at the table. This bottling more than meets our high standards, delivering both flavor and stucture in a super friendly and accessible style.

Francois Le Saint "Calcaire" Sancerre 2018

Our Score
(8/2020) Here's a certified organically-grown Sauvignon Blanc from micro-vigneron Francois Le Saint. Presenting a "natural" flavor profile, this high energy Sancerre satisfies all your cravings for citrusy tension and chalky minerality. Artisan Loire Valley whites at this price are fleeting. Grab a few bottles, some fresh goat cheese and a just chill.

Domaine des Cotes Blanches Sancerre 2019
The 91-Point Wine Enthusiast Review is for the Francois Millet Sancerre 2019 (quoted at $35 per bottle), and is same exact juice as the Cotes Blanches Sanerre 2019, just a different label!

(7/1/2020) "This is a rounded wine, with proper herbal flavors as well as ripe gooseberry and citrus. It is textured, mineral and still young. It will likely be at its best from 2021."
