Vacheron Sancerre Guigne-Chèvres 2018

94+ points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "From vines averaging 41 years old, planted on silex soils and picked almost as early as in 2011 (September 5 instead of 1), the 2018 Sancerre Guigne-Chèvres opens with a dense and concentred bouquet of dried white fruits, crushed stones and flowers. On the palate, this is a full-bodied, rich and intense yet crystalline, pure, fresh and salty Sancerre with fine tannins and a long, intense and iodine-inflected finish. Powerful, tannic and complex, this is an impressive wine to be cellared for a decade or two. Tasted in February 2021. Drink: 2025-2037. (Mar 2021)"

94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "[$85 list] The 2018 Sancerre Blanc Guigne-Chèvres is bright, steely and full of character. Lemon peel, white flowers, crushed rocks and white pepper give this taut, sculpted Sancerre so much character and nuance. The Guigne-Chèvres will appeal most to readers who enjoy nervy, racy whites. Drink: 2021-2028. (Oct 2020)"

93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Planted on flint soil, this north-facing vineyard has produced a steely, tight wine. Yet it is ripe and fresh, with young, tangy fruits that are just beginning to soften. Drink this complex wine from 2021. Organic and biodynamic. Alcohol 13%. (Dec 2020)"
