SANCERRE

93 Roger et Didier Raimbault 2016 Cuvée Côteline (Sancerre). From an old southeast-facing vineyard, this wine is rich and full. With three years in bottle, the wine has matured while still retaining ripe green fruits. It can be drunk now, but can age further and be at its peak from 2021. Serge Doré Selections. Editors’ Choice. —R.V.

91 Domaine François Millet 2019 Sancerre. This is a rounded wine, with proper herbal flavors as well as ripe gooseberry and citrus. It is textured, mineral and still young. It will likely be at its best from 2021. T. Elenteny Imports. —R.V.
