This is my favorite Sancerre: it has the liveliness of Sancerre, but also the fatness that gives it a great texture. very balanced and delicious.

It has it all: color, nose, roundness and length on the palate! Bravo la Chatelaine.

Smoky, woody, buttery notes with the freshness of Sauvigon citrus. Delicious

An excellent, somewhat atypical Sancerre.

Fresh, fruity and mineral. Could benefit from another year or two in the cellar, but already very pleasant. Goes well with fish and white meats.

This wine is both mineral and fruity, as you'd expect from a white Sancerre. Serve with small crottins as an aperitif.
