90 points Vinous: "The 2023 Sancerre Blanc is a very well-made example. From a tricky vintage with high yields, this impresses with its tenderness, balance and elegance. Biodynamic farming and hand harvesting, among other careful handling techniques, can be sensed in the wine's delicate texture. Aromatically, it's pretty with elderflower, ripe lemon and red apple. If you're going to buy Sancerre from 2023, you won't go wrong here. It is one of the best releases of the vintage to date. (RG)" (05/2024)

The Crochet domaine evolved through the marriage of the Crochet and Picard families, with the latter family having commenced its vineyard holdings in the Sancerre district as early as 1765. It was the great-grandfather of Lucien Crochet who first installed that part of the family in the region and it was in 1934 that the first bottling of wines occurred at the domaine. The domaine now is under the direction of Lucien Crochet and his son, Gilles. Importer's notes: "The grapes for this basic cuvée of Sancerre are sourced from the vineyards in Bué, Vinon an...

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. Organic viticulture has been a goal of the family for a number of years; as of 2003, the entire estate is certified organic. The following year the winery was converted completely to biodynamic agriculture—to...

93 points John Gilman: "The 2023 Vouvray "Le Haut Lieu" Sec from Domaine Huët is a classic in the making, coming in at an even thirteen percent octane in this vintage and offering up a bright and complex bouquet of quince, lemon, chalky soil tones, lanolin, white lilies and a topnote of citrus peel. On the palate the wine is pure, precise and full-bodied, with a lovely core of fruit, a fine spine of acidity, lovely focus and grip and a long, well balanced and complex finish. As is so often the case with the Sec bottlings from Domaine Huët, the 2023 Le Ha...

94 points John Gilman: "Domaine Huët’s 2023 Clos du Bourg Sec bottling is also excellent. The wine is deep, complex and beautifully focused on the nose, wafting from the glass in a mix of quince, apple, a touch of pink grapefruit, complex, chalky soil tones, lanolin, beeswax and a topnote of gently musky white flowers. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and shows a bit more mid-palate weight than the Le Haut Lieu and Le Mont Sec bottlings in 2023, with sound acids, excellent balance and grip and fine lift on the long and complex finish. It will ...

95 points Vinous: "The 2023 Vouvray Sec Le Mont is precise, upright and flinty. It's less immediately charming than the styles we've seen in recent warmer vintages, but it was only tasted three weeks after bottling—this is one to revisit. There's just the right amount of juicy, peachy flesh within this light-bodied yet concentrated wine. It has the potential to charm but does so without showing off. Flinty and tightly sewn together, it has curves in the right places, but you're just going to have to wait for it to take shape. (RG)" (07/2024) 93 points ...

95 points John Gilman: "There is no Demi-Sec from the Le Haut Lieu vineyard in 2023, but the Le Mont version seems destined to ultimately be ranked as one of the finest wines to be found anywhere along the Loire River in this vintage! The bouquet is pure, precise and already beautifully complex, wafting from the glass in a mix of sweet quince, apple, incipient notes of mirabelle, chalky minerality, a gentle touch of lanolin, bee pollen, orange peel and a lovely floral topnote of white lilies. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and supremely eleg...

94 points John Gilman: "The 2023 Clos du Bourg Demi-Sec from Domaine Huët is another beautiful example of the vintage. As is often the case these days, this wine comes in a half point higher in octane than the Le Mont version, tipping the scales at 13.5 percent alcohol. The wine offers up a superb aromatic constellation of sweet quince, yellow plum, beeswax, honeycomb, chalky minerality, lanolin and a topnote of citrus blossoms. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied, complex and beautifully balanced, with a lovely core of fruit, just a whisper of...
