Wow, a Sancerre for 12 dollars? Another Trader Joe's find, this wine fairs a little better than some of the other bargain bin renditions of well known wines. Sure, there isn't quite the complexity that most Sancerres have but it is still crisp, light and mineral driven. Definitely beats out many domestic Sauvignon Blancs.
