Beautiful dry sav blanc, and a fantastic value! Crisp, crystalline color with notes of green apple, sharp minerality, and a slight note of baked goods on the nose. Light bodied, with sharp crispness and acidity that tingles long after the first sip, with notes of lime rind, crisp green apple, white peach, and wet stone. The lime acid is very prominent! — 2 months ago
Lovely, crisp, tart, floral aroma and lemon accents. Nice on its own or with a picatta-style meal. — 4 months ago
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90 minutes. The 2023 pours pale pink color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with pretty notes of strawberry, raspberry, a mixed bouquet of flowers, watermelon and stony minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium and refreshing. Crush now with some good weather, some good mates and some light fare. — a month ago
Gorgeous Sancerre. Light on minerals, with a little fruit and honey. — 23 days ago
Jammy, fruity, easy going, with a long fresh finish. Juicy raspberry, strawberry and plum, with a tingly acidity, slight tannin, and notes of dark chocolate, woody bark and some slight smoke, the medium body and dark rose color make for an elevated glou, the nose is slightly more floral, but still plenty of fruit, with a slight mushroom hint and great crunchy fruit. Really enjoyable, incredible value, great for easy drinking! — 3 months ago
We loved this wine with a black grouper with lemongrass…full bouquet, floral taste accented the somewhat Vietnamese dish. — 5 months ago

So, this Sancerre is one of those IYKYK wines that I purchased nearly 20 years ago and lost in my cellar — Edmond Vatan (who I believe has been deceased for some time, his daughter is running the tiny estate these days) made around 500 cases of this amazing Sancerre, but the dumb ass typing this note thought it’d easily last 20-25 years (2002 being a fine Loire vintage) — obviously I significantly miscalculated, as this should have been consumed 10 or more years ago. With that said, with fresh grilled tuna steaks, the wine is standing up well, very nice richness, still excellent acidity. but any freshness has long ago faded. Yet, my admiration for Monsieur Vatan is only enhanced by the fact this shows pretty darn well for a wine not likely intended to be aged as long as the dumb ass typist thought it should!! — 3 days ago
