We quaff (and rate) four of the finest Sancerre around. But which vintage prevailed?
OUR VERDICT
LE CLOCHER D’AMÉLIE 2016
Pleasantly complex with refreshing hints of gooseberry and peach, it is just the ticket on a balmy summer’s day. £17.99
LES MARENNES 2016
Fruity on the attack and delightfully moreish, it is simply a cut above the rest. £16.99
COMTE DE LA PERRIÈRE SILEX 2015
A symphony of mineral notes and grassy aromas, it is an elegant palate cleanser. £20.99
HUBERT BROCHARD 2016
Clean, if a little too subtle, it lacks the balance and zing of other vintages. £16.79
