Reviews and Ratings

Rebecca Meir-Liebman - Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Pascal Jolivet was founded in 1987 and became quite successful internationally. Well balanced Sauvignon blanc with notes of gooseberry, green apple, red apple, lime minerality and squeezed lemon. Fresh, racy acidity, this medium bodied Sancerre is a great pairing for a variety of appetizers; from fresh light salads to calamari, white fish and scallops. Good for its price.
Pascal Jolivet 2017 is a mouth-watering and dry Sancerre from the Loire. Laser acidity, power and structure on this medium-bodied white. Look for ripe green apple, lemon-lime zest with a touch of flintiness and a mineral finish. Pair with seafood. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
