I say this only to warn you that this one will not last long. The 2018 vintage in Sancerre was monumental. Winemakers were the first to sing its praises. Alphone Mellot declared “This is a mythical vintage – 1947 but with quantity!” Jolivet agreed, chiming in that, “The 2018 vintage is one of the most exceptional vintages that we’ve seen in the past 50 years.” I’ll ‘help out’ with any Sancerre, especially abandoned 2018 Sancerre I assumed was long gone.
Domaine Reverdy-Ducroux traces its roots back to 1550, but with 14th generation winemaker Laurent now at the helm, they have not been sitting on their laurels. The last 20 years have been spent transforming the historic estate to best capture the individual essence of each of their distinct 70 micro-plots.
The ‘Beauroy’ is selected from those parcels that cut right through the center of the estate creating a dynamic and beautifully round expression of Sauvignon as you find on the best clay/limestone type soils near the town of Verdigny. Bright citrus, phenomenal balance, the 2018 Reverdy-Ducroux has a super long, harmonious finish.

92 Points, Wine Enthusiast
This is a huge favorite of folks in the Red Bank area. It’s a bold, unapologetic Chardonnay with juicy notes of peach, lemon sorbet, baking spice and vanilla with a rich, creamy middle and plenty of natural acidity to balance it out. The lemon vanilla finish is perhaps the wine’s calling card or the sheer drinkability of it all. Either way, it’s a Chard that people adore. It’s no wonder Wine Enthusiast called this, “a big win for fans of this bold style”.
Gold Medal (Best in Show), 2023 Mundus Vini International Tasting
The area has also been isolated from the rest of Spain for generations, which has kept the wine prices far lower than wines of this quality would be anywhere else in the world. That’s why, despite having the Torres family name on the bottle and the consistent huge press (including the Gold Medal & Best in Show at the 2023 Mundus Vini International Wine Awards in Germany), these wines can still be scooped up for under $20/bottle. It’s like the Sancerre pricing of yesteryear.
Year in, year out Château Turcaud produces one of the best white wine values in the world. It’s long been found on Michelin-starred wine lists in Paris and we’ve had it at the restaurant since Day 1. If you’ve ever tried this stunning, classic Bordeaux of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Sauvignon Gris and Muscadelle, then you know why. The new 2022 vintage has arrived and it’s beaming with energy and pure stone fruits. This is a beauty as always.
I’ve forewarned Nicholas Wines customers that the 2022 vintage in Burgundy appears to be outstanding. As such, I’ve been stocking up on as much as I can. This one though is a Saturday Nighter – a special wine for sure. It comes from Fourchaume (one of the most noted Chablis 1ers crus) and vineyards situated on long slopes facing the sunrise, which allow for rapid soil warm up – a huge key to making deep, concentrated Chablis. Here the soils are predominantly brown clay and only slightly stony. Most of them are fairly deep and well-draining. It’s one of those most special white wine locations in all of Burgundy. This is a classic.
