Score 88/100 · Drink 2021-2025, Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, Aug 2021

A perky and youthful Sancerre on the nose, the 2020 Sancerre La Chatellenie offers flinty notes, nettles, gooseberry and citrus. In the mouth, it reveals its fuller, riper personality, with rounded shoulders, nectarine fruit and a satisfying textural clasp of the cheeks. There is good concentration here, but the slight note of alcohol (14%) detracts from the finish.
