Sibylle Sancerre Pinot Noir Rosé 2021

Delectable Wine
9.1

The 2022 Sibylle is a textural, tender Rosé that offers a gentle welcome. It fills the mouth with ripe, sweet fruit. The gentle acidity gives an impression of sweetness despite it being totally dry. Great for early drinking. (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, August 2024)

Nice minerality, definitely herbal. Missing some of the weight I’ve come to love with Sancerre of this caliber. — 4 months ago

Mont de Milieu Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2020

My first time here in Chablis! I chose to have with dinner (Wine Not, a fantastic wine bar & restaurant in Chablis) a bottle from a winemaker who doesn’t need a great deal of introduction nowadays. Samuel Billaud has fast become one of the region’s most exciting winemakers, so I was eager to try something of his. This was on the list for the veritable bargain of €65. Mont de Milieu is a premier cru from the right bank of the Sereine, a vineyard which shares a very similar aspect, and soils, to Les Clos. The 2020 here is a wine of immense presence, structure, classicism, with a slight hedonistic character. The flavours lean toward the fuller side of the spectrum, with flavours of marzipan, orange peel and fresh cut marmalade, with a hint of honey. But there is terrific zip on entry, incredible minerality; any weight to this wine is lean, muscular and structured, possessing deft acidity, a lovely herbaceous quality (think tomato vine) and a finish to die for. I’ve immediately bought four bottles of this back home and can’t wait to enjoy it again. — 2 months ago

Monts Damnés Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Delectable Wine
9.3

The 2022 Monts Damnés is a wine whose qualities you might miss because its texture is so fine. It is calm, tender and elegant. It's not fruity but savory with a pure, clear, chalky style. A little tense at the moment, this wine could be approached but will benefit from another year in bottle - or many more. (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, August 2024)
