Chateau de Sancerre, Sancerre (Loire Valley, France) 2010

($22, Moët Hennessey USA):  I love authentic Sancerre, such as this one, because it transmits an earthy chalky edginess, along with the grapefruity side of Sauvignon Blanc.  The 2010 Chateau de Sancerre has length and body, elements often lacking in modern Sancerre.  It virtually sparkles on the tongue, which makes it easy to recommend. 91 Michael Apstein Mar 20, 2012
