2022 Comte de la Chevaliere Sancerre

It’s always nice to find new bottles of Sancerre arriving at Costco, especially as the much-loved Kirkland Sancerre seems to now be gone or near gone at most places we’ve seen.

This bottle is a couple bucks more but well worth it for Sancerre fans.  And Costco’s $21.99 price tag represents a nice discount compared to other outlets we found.  Online this bottle is going for around $26 at most places and up to $33 at Total Wine.

This is well made Sancerre, which is 100{83994d7454f8ce68441ea8152244c292227c3db19076e7622c8f5ff92141c35a} Sauvignon Blanc from France’s Loire Valley.

In the glass the wine pours a pale yellow with citrus fruit on the nose; some white peach, green apple, lemon / lime flavor surrounded by nice minerality; good depth of flavor with a crisp and lasting finish.

This bottle is a real spring / summer treat so don’t hesitate to stock up if it sounds up your alley.  You don’t find a lot of Sancerre this good around $20.  We’ll be adding to our Top Picks list, and we wish we had bought a few more.
