2022 Joost De Villebois Sancerre

Sauvignon Blanc more

4/20/2024 - FrenchAmericanGuy Likes this wine: 89 points

Very nice Sancerre with a well rounded citrus fruit flavor set dominanted by grapefruit. It also features some touch of green apple and almond. It is missing the crisp acidity and mineral flavors to reach that amazing complexity I love in Sancerre. I am not drinking Sancerre often enough and knowing enough about them to say if it will likely gain that crispiness within a year or two. I believe 2022 is still very young even for a Sancerre, but that was the vintage available at the restaurant where this Sancerre made our dinner very enjoyable!

Light yellow with green hues. Green apple and citrus on the nose. Mineral, lime flavors and acidity on palate. Long finish. Good everyday wine and a bargain from Costco.,

great acidity crispness minerality citrus with lime, gooseberry and lemongrass. classic Sancerre. Great fruit, balance, acidity. Outstanding QPR. Drinks beautifully now but I think has the structure, fruit and acidity to last. It may not get better, but you can enjoy for at least a few years (some Sancerre can be long lived). A must try. Highly recommended

Very pleasant & food friendly. The acidity is high @ the beginning, then it balanced very well with food. (Served it with a veal carpaccio)

Pleasant lemon peal notes, lime, citrus, apple, white peach, elderflower & - of course - grass.

Another fantastic showing. Gooseberry lime citrus grapefruit lemongrass bouquet and flavors. Great racing acidity which keeps it Lively and interesting. Drinks beautifully now. Has the acidity, fruit, and structure to hold up for a while. Enjoy now or the next few years. Great qpr. Great complexity. Was a notch better than the 2022 Guilleraut-Fargette taste it right after it but it was no slouch either.

Light body, golden straw colour, 14% abv. Intense aroma of tropical fruits and citrus, haystack and flowers’ honey notes. Green apples, pomelo and spicy on palate, dry finish of lovely acidity and good length. Crisp and fresh, well balanced, brilliant wine for its price. Food friendly, well pairing to grilled sea bass. Open a few minutes ahead. Serve 12ºC - 14ºC. Drink now while young and the next couple of years.

Nice dark ruby color. Bouquet of spice and earthy cherries. Very smooth and well balanced. Light to medium bodied with flavors of earth, dark cherries, hints of smoke. Long finish with acidity and tannins added to the dark fruit. Likely meant for short term. Drink now to 2026. Almost a Cru Beaujolais meets Burgundy. Old world in style. Definitely worth trying. Pretty rare to find red Sancerre imported, even more so in the kosher world

Very enjoyable. Vibrant lemon and lime followed by some milder white stone fruit, some bit of green pepper and grass, plus nice minerality amd balanced acid. On the NZ side of French SVB. It came together nicely and good QPR. will buy again.

Very different from their Sancerre. Anna's explosive on the bouquet and the beginning of the flavors but the mid palette and finish really kick in . I think that this has more to show over time. Even if it doesn't it is still excellent . Pale gold color. Bouquet of citrus, space, minerals. Good concentration with flavors of citrus, minerals, spice and a saltiness come and minerality, limestone. The acidity and citrus really kicks in on the mid palette and finish. Long finish. Not as explosive as their Sancerre but still quite good with good concentration and great balance. This actually may improve with some more model age. Definitely worth trying. Good qpr. 13.5% ABV.

Pale straw color. Explosive bouquet of citrus, minerals, lemongrass, gooseberry. Beautiful bracing acidity. Explosive flavors of citrus, minerals, slate, saltiness, lemongrass, gooseberry. Long acidic finish. This is just absolutely delicious. Excellent qpr. 12.5% abv. Very different from his Pouilly Fume stylistically speaking even though both are excellent. Drinks beautiful now but with this kind of acidity it probably has staying power. And absolute fantastic example of Sancerre. A must try.

Pale gold color. Nice bouquet of citrus, dry peach, grapefruit. Nice acidic wine with grapefruit, citrus, lemon, lime, slate, stone, some minerals. Long finish. Very different from their Sancerre (more restrained, refined and complex). Long finish with minerals, slate, acidity. Drinks nicely now. Good QPR and different in a good way

Delicious refined, well balanced nose. Taste: fruit (with apple, peach and a note of pineapple), rather dominate acidity and a mineral not. The minerals and lemony acidity mingle into a sharp edge that cuts more or less in your taste-buds. But this effect has diminished in the period since my last bottle of this wine in May this year, the fruit was more at the front now and there was a better balance. At the third day lively, well balanced and a bit more soft. At the fifth with a green note. Attractive wine that still might benefit of half a year or more keeping. First day 88-89, second 89-90.

Retail $25. Restaurant $42. Under DIAM 5. 100% Pinot Noir. I am a bit surprised by the two reviews of this wine here on Cellar Tracker. I was at one of our favorite restaurants and I decided to go with this rosé from Sancerre. I thought it was a pretty safe bet, and it was. Sure, it is not a world-beater, but it is fruity, tart, and refreshing. What else is there? No, I am not going to mortgage my house or sell my car to buy futures of this wine, but tonight? On a still rather warm evening in Houston? You bet.

The wine looks violet colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry, raspberry and red currant. It tastes like strawberry, raspberry and red currant. The body is light. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

Old World style . Nice deep Ruby color. Tangy berries on the bouquet. Light medium body with good fruit and good balance. Flavors of cherry, Tangy berries, Earth. A very subtle style but still excellent. Long tannic finish. This likely has further development to go in the bottle. Approachable now it may be better in a year or two. Quite honestly the more I drink this the more it grows on me. I definitely want to revisit this soon. Also red sancerre is very uncommon even in the non-kosher world so if you like red wines especially Pinot Noir I definitely recommend trying it

A bottle I didn’t really take notes at the time of consumption. But was enjoyed! Young and fresh, extremely refreshing. Notes of grapefruit, green apple, and chalk. It’s hard to go wrong with a Sancerre in the summer.
