Dme. David Sautereau, Sancerre,
Drink now,
The talented David Sautereau has once again come up trumps, succeeding in retaining the classic restraint and balance of Sancerre, while giving a subtle nod to the unusually generous summer of 2018. The result is a fresh and mineral take on this warm and sunny vintage, seamlessly combining ripe stone-fruit with crisp citrus and subtle flint. It’s a perfect partner to the famous local Crottin de Chavignol goats’ cheese.

Dme. David Sautereau, Sancerre,
Drink now,
Sancerre rosé from a quality producer like David Sautereau is a delightful, versatile wine that combines complexity with a sense of insouciance. David’s 2017 is a case in point. It’s characterised by floral and red berry aromas, fine tannins and “crunchy” acidity. A natural accompaniment to salads or poached salmon, it has sufficient personality to stand up to richer dishes too, such as Moroccan lamb tagine. Drink now to 2022.

Dme. David Sautereau, Sancerre,
Drink now,
Tenth-generation winemaker David Sautereau has produced an exemplary Sancerre, with aromas of white pepper, grass, citrus and tropical fruit. There’s texture and acidity aplenty, and a saline, “oyster shell” character to the palate, which David attributes to the fossil-rich soils around the village of Crézancy.
This is drinking brilliantly now, but consider tucking it away for five years, then marvel at its combination of complexity and evergreen freshness. Drink now to 2024.
