Pascal Jolivet 2004 Exception Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Editors' Choice
- $78
The wine is full-bodied, with hints of smoke, and with a deliciously fresh, crisp apple aftertaste. It is powerful and rich while not losing any elegance.

Pascal Jolivet 2006 Les Caillottes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $30
From old vines on chalky soil, this wine minerality as well as concentration. It is crisp but full, ripe but fresh. There’s a touch of spiciness to complement the ripe green plum and apple skin flavors.

Pascal Jolivet 2000 Les Caillottes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Editors' Choice
- $22
Among the range of Jolivet's 2000 Sancerres, Les Cailottes is the winner, hands down. It's zesty, with chalk and mineral qualities. The nose is clean, stony and pungent, while the flavors that come next are pure and ripe citrus and melon, with just a nip of honey. It closes out firm, round and full, and with elegance.

Pascal Jolivet 2006 Château du Nozay Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $32
Almost tropical in its ripeness, this is exotically rich. It is full-bodied, concentrated, powered by white peaches and spliced with green berry fruits. A touch of smokiness adds complexity.

Pascal Jolivet 2003 Le Chateau du Nozay Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $26
Lively, full, tangy and precise. Our tasting panel was unanimous in its support for this minerally, citrusy wine; we very much liked its fresh green apple, grapefruit and white peach flavors, and we’re sure it would be an excellent food wine, especially with fish. Imported by Frederick Wildman and Sons, Ltd.

Pascal Jolivet 2003 Sauvignon Blanc (Pouilly-Fumé)
- $20
Tart and grassy, with definition to the nose. Gentle lime, grass, stone fruits and apple flavors make for a perfectly fresh and tasty palate, while the finish is dry, crisp, borderline tart and racy. Very good for everyday, no-frills Loire Sauvignon. Imported by Frederick Wildman and Sons, Ltd.

Pascal Jolivet 2006 Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $25
A forwardly fruity, lightly mineral wine, all freshness and white berry fruits, elegant and well-balanced with the crisp, apple acidity. A great apéritif style of Sancerre.

Pascal Jolivet 2003 Les Caillottes Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $26
Sharp and smoky at first, but cleaner and more open if given time. Light apple and peach flavors mix with citrus, while the finish is simple, clean and touched by white pepper. This one sports just enough power and heft to handle the acidity, which is sharp. Imported by Frederick Wildman and Sons, Ltd.
