Anciennes Vignes Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc
2018 vintage. Green apple, lime, green pineapple, green bean, chive blossom, chalk. Good ripe style of SB, but definitely distinctive. Revving up for a busy Super Bowl weekend! Hope we don't have any trauma flashbacks from last year lol.

Feb 5th, 2021Oh yeah Sancerre being tricky in a blind tasting I’d call this...I don’t know it’s so ripe. But that doesn’t mean it ain’t a tasty treat. More stone fruit. Some grass. White pepper and haunting white flower.its skinny fat. Good acid but voluptuous.

Feb 10th, 2020Pink grapefruit with pith, green papaya, fresh cut grass, lime zest, cat pee, mild chalk. Long finish. Quite typical and delicious.

1 person found it helpfulAug 7th, 2019The 2018 ‘Anciennes Vignes’ Sancerre is a beautiful new wine by Cottat. The aromatic range is really good from nutty and earthy undertones to wet stone and pink grapefruit blossom aromas that meld in the glass. The weight is fantastic as bright citrus oil and green apple connect with the lovely earthy tones of the wine. This finishes exceedingly long. A fantastic effort, this is best enjoyed in its youth while the brightness remains, although this has the rich texture to cellar over the next five plus years. Drink 2019-2025- 92
