“A beautiful, fragrant, full-bodied Sancerre with smooth tannins”

“This Sancerre exudes a superb blend of ripe fruit (morello cherry, blackberry, blueberry) and woody notes (coconut, vanilla). The palate confirms this masterfully executed aging: richness, oak, and tannins come together in perfect harmony to create a sensation of fullness, body, and restrained power. The Favorite put to a vote.” (Le Guide Hachette 2025).

Bettane & Desseauve

Rated 2 stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more conventional and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

This 14-hectare family-run estate, managed by Pascal Reverdy, is meticulously cultivated using environmentally friendly methods, though it does not claim to be organic. Among the whites, the Terre-de-Maimbray cuvée, produced from Kimmeridgian soil similar to that of Chablis, makes for a wonderful introduction. This is one of the best value-for-money wines in Sancerre.

Rated estate (2026 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the wine:

This Sancerre exudes a superb blend of ripe fruit (morello cherry, blackberry, blueberry) and woody notes (coconut, vanilla). On the palate, it confirms its masterfully crafted aging: richness, oak, and tannins come together in perfect harmony to create a sensation of fullness, body, and restrained power. The Favorite put to a vote.

About the estate:

The village of Maimbray is surrounded by steep hillsides with Kimmeridgian marl soils. Following the death of her husband Nicolas in 2007, Sophie Reverdy took over the family estate (17.8 hectares) alongside her brother-in-law Pascal. In 2019, Victorien, Pascal’s son, joined the estate, followed in 2023 by Benjamin, the youngest son.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the wine:

With notes of pepper and ripe morello cherry, A Nicolas goes a step further in terms of intensity and charm. A beautiful, fragrant, full-bodied Sancerre with smooth tannins.

About the estate:

At their estate in Sury-En-Vaux, Pascal Reverdy and his sister-in-law Sophie produce a range of single-vineyard whites full of character, with a fruity, subtly mineral profile and smoky finishes. The 2020 vintage marks a shift toward more floral and elegant reds, the result of experiments with partial whole-cluster fermentation. The arrival of Pascal’s son, Victorien, a young winemaker, has undeniably breathed new life into the wines. Take the “A Nicolas” cuvée, for example, which has refined itself over recent vintages to become a deeper, unvarnished wine.
