Pascal Jolivet 2010 Exception Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Cellar Selection

An impressive blend from some of the top vineyards in Sancerre, this is a rounded, smooth, almost toasty wine. It has flavors of spice as well as green and citrus fruits. Full in the mouth and intense, age this for at least two years.

Pascal Jolivet 2010 Sauvage Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Cellar Selection
- $70
A rich, yeasty wine, this is a ripe expression of Sauvignon Blanc, with balanced and concentrated mineral intensity and taut lemon and grapefruit flavors. There is a strong sense of structure and texture, and the wine needs to age at least two years.

Pascal Jolivet 2010 Le Chêne Marchand Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- $42
The steep south-facing Chêne Marchand vineyard provides fruit for this very concentrated and impressive wine. Its weight doesn’t come from richness, but rather a powerful structure that underpins a mineral tang and intense freshness.

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 2010 Indigène Sauvignon Blanc (Pouilly-Fumé)

An impressive, ripe wine, this is packed with baked apple and grapefruit flavors, with a taut, mineral texture. It needs at least a year to round out.

Pascal Jolivet 2010 Clos du Roy Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre)
- Cellar Selection
- $45
This is intensely minerally and very tight. It has a real steely character, with its acidity packed tight into the concentrated texture, making this dense wine likely to age over three years.

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.
