Score 92/100 · Drink 2022-2029, Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, Aug 2021
Fine, crisp and clear, the 2020 Sancerre Le Paradis hails from a one-hectare plot on limestone soil. Silken in texture, it flows easily across the palate, offering up gooseberry, elderflower and pear flavors. This Sancerre has excellent concentration and fine line on the finish. Tasted just weeks after bottling; this may well look better when released on to the market.
