Critics Ratings
Lucien Crochet Sancerre Blanc 2014
The grapes for this cuvée of Sancerre are sourced from the vineyards in Bué, Vinon and Crézancy. As with all the whites at the domaine, this wine sits in contact with the fine lies for a considerable period of time with the racking being done late in the spring following harvest. The resulting wine is pungent and distinctive with mineral and grapefruit flavors; great depth and texture.
Lucien Crochet Sancerre La Croix du Roy Rouge 2014
'Sourced from several parcels on rocky white soil, this is a vibrant style of Pinot, full of energy with a crisp acidity and fresh red summer fruits. Medium-bodied with a nice balance between easy-drinking pleasure and layers of complexity. Tannins are ripe and this is in a great place to drink now. A very pretty wine, unforced and unpretentious, and all the better for it.' - Christelle Guibert, Decanter.com, 91/100 (Oct 2019)
'Cherries, slight sappiness, tart acidity, grippy tannins. Decent concentration, but pretty mean flavors.' - Richard Hemming, JancisRobinson.com, 15/20 (Feb 2019)
Lucien Crochet Sancerre Le Chêne 2014
'Le Chêne Marchand 2014 from Domaine Lucien Crochet has a limpid pale yellow color . On the nose, you can see aromas of fresh grapes, white fruits, pear and chalk . The wine offers a nice profile on the palate , appearing crunchy with good volume and fat . The finish is long and mineral in the mouth. To be kept until 2020.' - Millesima
