such a consistent wine in every vintage ~ see my 2021 notes ~ but will say 2022 is a little more subtle ~ don’t drink it too cold!

Hopefully this bottle is slightly corked. Pleasant wine but no nerve to it.

Creamy entry adding peach (fresh and canned) and grapefruit pith to flavors, then electric salinity and lime juice pop with a mineral finish bordering on white pepper

2019 Vacheron Sancerre - had this wine before didn’t seem to be as amazing as previous vintages lemon lime , gooseberry, good acidity - maybe it needs some old fashion laying down time

Richer style with possible RS. Very good but is a little out of balance. Acid too low and alcohol too high. Otherwise the Sancerre fruit profile was there.

Vacheron's 2019 Sancerre Blanc is classy, polished and pedigreed through and through. A whole range of bright Sauvignon Blanc aromas and flavors race out of the glass. Citrus, sage, tomato leaf and white pepper all grace this taut, beautifully sculpted Sancerre from Vacheron. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, October 2020)

Elegant palate that starts creamy, moves to sherbet, then goes flinty, with slight flower petal finish
