Lucien Crochet 2004 Le Chêne Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $29
Lucien and his son, Gilles, are two of the best technicians in Sancerre: Their wines always have great purity of fruit. But with Le Chêne (the oak tree), they also have a fine, delicious wine that bursts with almond, toast and ripe fruit, as well as exuberant citrus flavors. This is Sauvignon Blanc at its freshest. Imported by Rosenthal Wine Merchants.

Lucien Crochet 2000 La Croix du Roy Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Editors' Choice
- $20
The catch-all nose offers grass, grapefruit, flint, vanilla and baking spices. What follows is a tasty blend of citrus, green herbs, Granny Smith apples and a welcome chalkiness. Round yet structured, this bottling offers most of what’s great about Loire Valley white wine.

Lucien Crochet 2003 Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Editors' Choice
- $23
Immensely flowery, with pure honeysuckle and touches of melon on the summer-fresh nose. Rather full and big on the palate, with intense flavors of green melon, peach and spice. Only medium zest to the finish, but sneakily powerful. Imported by Rosenthal Wine Merchants.
