90 points Wine Enthusiast: "This wine has a highly approachable layer of Bosc pear on the nose, but it’s the Golden Delicious apple and nectarine blossom underlay that are most alluring. White chalk jumps rope with playful acidity on the palate that craves panko-crusted chicken and moules-frites. (RS)" (12/2024) K&L Notes: The wines of Aurore Dezat are a regular feature in our wine club offerings, and her vibrant Sancerre is an easy favorite among K&L staff as well.

This is a dynamite Sauvignon Blanc from a 5th-generation family-owned estate. Named for the region's famed silex soils, this bottling is lean and structured with wonderful notes of citrus, crystalline minerality, and lively acidity.

This family-owned domaine, located in the tiny Loire village of St-Julien-de-Chédon, dates back to 1804. Since 2009, Laurent Benoist has been at the helm, focusing his efforts on sustainable farming and pure, terroir-driven wines. As a region, Touraine has the flexibility to plant a wide range of varieties, setting it apart from Vouvray, which only allows Chenin Blanc, or Sancerre, which only allows Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. In Touraine, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir and a few other indigenous grapes ...

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "This wine has a nose of black raspberry, pencil shavings, violet blossom, pomegranate and hibiscus. Your lips will pucker into a smile, not because of the acidity but because of the balance between the acidity and tannic structure that pulls you in, while in perfect balance with the faintest herbal undertones that push the wine into the heavenly zone.

Joyful aromas of red raspberry, pencil shavings, dried herbs, rhubarb and fresh strawberries jump out on the nose of the wine.

Domaine Cherrier was founded in 1930, and since then four generations of the family have run the estate. Brothers François and Jean-Marie work sustainably in all their vineyards. In 2010, they acquired 10 hectares of vines in the nearby region of Menetou-Salon. The estate has limestone and calcareous clay soils that wonderfully influence the character of the grapes grown there. K&L French Regional buyer Keith Mabry says: "For those seeking Sancerre quality but at a more competitive price, look no further than Menetou-Salon. The Cherrier brothers deli...

This Sauvignon Blanc from Touraine displays an intense, classic nose of cut grass, pepper and, believe it or not, pineapple and lemon, with plenty of minerality. Very crisp and refreshing, like a cross between a classic Touraine and a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, at an astonishingly low price! Perfect with seafood. Grown in an area located between the Loire and Cher Rivers and sandwiched between the towns of Tours and Blois, the wine shows the classic characteristics of the rich clay soils that are fortified with flint and limestone.

The Bedouet family's history in the region dates back to the 1890s, when the estate was created by Henri Bedouet. His grandson, Michel, took possession and expanded the holdings when he assumed the reins in 1990. In 2010, he began the conversion to organic farming. The vines for the Clos des Grands Primos are planted on a mix of gneiss, mica, and schist soils creating the classic flavor profile of Muscadet. Notes of grapefruit, salted apples, melon, and flint expand on the nose and crisp acidity on the palate makes for one of our best Muscadets in the st...

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Yellow-gold hued, this wine is fresh with a pleasing nose of sun-kissed golden apple, lemon zest and bosc pear. Fruit flavors suggested on the nose are made more substantial on the rich and supple palate that is dusted with dried white blossom. Roasted Cornish hen, rotisserie chicken and tarte flambe would all compliment the wine that is an ideal pairing partner with more complex dishes.

The wines of this family domaine have been a staple here at K&L since the 1994 vintage when Franck and Betty Millet drove from Sancerre to Bordeaux (a long way) to meet Clyde and crew to present their wines. The wines were great even in that tough vintage, and the rest is history. We love these wines for their freshness, charm and affordability. They consistently make our best value Sancerre in the store, and their Menetou-Salon from just down the road bears all the hallmarks that made us fall in love with this domaine 25 years ago.

The 2022 offers tension and drive despite the warmth of the season.

Cherry cola surfaces on the nose along with strawberry cream, blueberry blossom and hibiscus.

94 points Vinous: "In the middle of the city of Chinon with one of the best views of the fortress, the 2019 Clos de l'Echo provides a focused and compact core of Cabernet fruit. From the warm and dry 2019 season, there's plentiful ripeness here and a sense of softness to the mid-weight palate. However, the 14% alcohol rather tips the wine out of balance, leaving a warming sensation. For fans of wine with texture, you'll find yourself at home: there's plenty of substance and an almost meaty feeling with the finest of chalky tannins coating the cheeks. The...

95 points Vinous: "From one of the appellation's most historic vineyards to the east of the city of Chinon, the 2019 Clos de l'Olive offers a wonderfully rich fragrance and an almost creamy mid palate. While it feels a little closed right now, the concentration is intense. The finish is long and has sinew and sense of chalky precision, likely due to the clay-limestone soils of this south-facing, old-vine vineyard. You can expect a brooding and lingering scent that fills the mouth with fragrance long after you've tasted this wine. It's reminiscent of dark...

Like Sancerre but half the price! The Fournier family, with roots as deep as their vines in this region, seem to be related to just about everyone in some way. They've been farming and producing wines in Sancerre for generations. We are pleased to have been offered this wine, yet again, at such a great price. Soft, subtle mineral notes are wrapped up in aromatics of melon and citrus. Clean, bright and refreshing, this is a perfect little Sauvignon Blanc. Tropical fruit, citrus and spice aromas and flavors, with vibrant acidity and minerality. Perfect for...

As with the Le Val-Fleuri, it's 100% Melon but had 18 months of élevage in glass-coated concrete tanks. Stone fruits, dried citrus, hay, and a kiss of honeyed minerality all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied, with a layered mouthfeel and outstanding length."

94 points John Gilman: "The 2022 vintage of les Grézeaux from the Baudry family is a great bottle in the making. This is nicely measured in ripeness for such a warm summer, coming in at an even thirteen percent, but no doubt, the fifty-plus year-old vines here navigate extremes during the summer far better than younger vines. The wine’s bouquet is deep, complex and very refined, wafting from the glass in a mix of sweet cassis, black cherries, cigar wrapper, gravelly soil tones, tree bark, espresso and a smoky topnote.

The wines of Aurore Dezat are a regular feature in our wine club offerings, and her vibrant Sancerre is an easy favorite among K&L staff as well. Aurore makes wine on her family estate in Sury-en-Vaux, which was established by her grandfather. Before Aurore took over the estate, most of the fruit was sold off through négociants.

From one of the most hallowed vineyards in Sancerre, and made by the scion of one of the pre-eminent families in Sancerre, Dominique Crochet's Les Chêne Marechand Sancerre is a gorgeously expressive wine.

It’s got all the telltale signs of a great Sauvignon Blanc, prominent lime zest, gooseberry and honey dew notes, but it’s also got weight.

He began the restoration of the property and converted the vineyards to organic farming. Receiving Ecocert certification in 1998, the next hurdle was biodynamics. By 2010, the estate received biodynamic certification through Biodyvin.

According to its maker, the domain lost around 60% of the crop. This is definitely a Sauvignon Blanc with its green capsicum and mint flavors; often, the varietal character is less overt in the Daguneau styles. It's light in body with silken flesh built through the mid-palate. The 2021 offers some nice texture and lees-derived pastry characters.

The Vacheron vineyards are all close to the village of Sancerre itself and have been in the family for 9 generations. Today, this domaine is run by two cousins, the Messieurs Vacheron. Both have sons studying viticulture to carry on the family tradition. The vineyards cover 34 hectares with two principal soil types; "silex" and "caillotte" or chalk.

Jacky Blot discovered wine as a junior pâtissier while working at a restaurant in Paris in his younger days. Eventually deciding to follow the winemaking track in life, he ultimately came to acquire the Domaine la Taille aux Loups in Montlouis-sur-Loire, some twenty years ago, and eventually added the Domaine de la Butte in Bourgueil to his portfolio. The two appellations both reside along the Loire and perhaps do not have the same notoriety as their kissing cousins, Vouvray and Chinon.

Vincent Gaudry uses fruit from all three soils types in Sancerre--chalk, silex and clay-limestone marl--to make Le Tournebride, a rarirty for the region, and a boon to this wine. The chalky soils contribute perfumy grapefruit and lime notes, while the silex adds a smoky mineral dimension and the clay-limestone marls give the wine weight and structure. The result: A wonderfully complete representation of all that Sancerre has to offer--fruit, mineral and substance.
