Fournier Père et Fils 2007 Les Belles Vignes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $27
Pure grassy Sauvignon Blanc aromas are a good start to the crisp, fresh wine. It has all the right herbaceous and green fruit flavors, very fresh, structured with green plum skins. There is a delicious final acidity.

Fournier Père et Fils 2008 Les Belles Vignes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $27
An edgy, mineral style, full in the mouth, with fruit flavors that definitely go towards pear and apricot and away from herbaceous. It’s a great style that allows the wine to age, with a firm texture to go with the fruit.

Fournier Père et Fils 2006 Les Belles Vignes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Online Exclusive
- $22
An enticingly perfumed wine, with its white flowers and apricot blossom. The palate is soft, rich, moving towards yellow fruits, ripe pink grapefruit and just an edge of mineral chalkiness.

Fournier Père et Fils 2009 Les Belles Vignes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Online Exclusive
- $26
Soft and ripe, the normal herbaceous character rounded out with pear and peach fruits. Sure, there is a tang, a kick to the wine, with acidity. But it is the ripeness that dominates.

Fournier Père et Fils 2005 Les Belles Vignes Pinot Noir (Sancerre)

This is from the best Pinot Noir vintage in Sancerre for several years. It has ripe flavors, smoky, with red cherry and strawberry fruits and a texture of wood, tannins and an edge of leather. It is dry, but always fruity.

Fournier Père et Fils 2011 Les Belles Vignes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)

Currant fruits, a tight, mineral character and crisp citrus are combined with a richer potential that will round this wine out over the next year. It has weight, a steely edge and youthful structure.
