Terrific value Southern Rhone. Bursting with aromas of white flowers and honey backed by a racy combination of lime juice, cardamom, ginger, and minerals. Beautiful lingering finish that echoes the honeyed citrus and spice aromas. — 3 months ago

Slightly herbaceous. Citrus green apple. Chalk flint featured this region. Rich. With elegancy. Good match with seafood. Sweetness. Highly balanced! 13.5% Sancerre Le Chene Marchand Pascal Jolivet 22 @5280, Toscan, 250727-250921 — 3 months ago
Very smooth and balanced. Melon and chalk with rich finish. — 8 months ago
Fruit and earth and heme and amazing tannins and just a hint of Brett. Quite lovely though. Could certainly have aged longer but I didn’t feel like waiting. — 2 months ago

WA Review 95 points ( dense and structured, yet still vibrant and very pure, the 2007 Abelard is 90% Grenache and 10% Syrah. Loaded with deep blackberry and black cherry fruit, licorice, crushed stone and hints of roasted herbs, it is full rich and concentrated, with knockout precision and focus. It is serious stuff and still a baby. Drink it over the coming decade)
96 points for me since it’s aged very well. — a month ago
