Stellar. Less ripe than most every other Chavignol Sancerre (ie. Pascal or Francois Cotat) - but true to the varietal and terroir.

Lime, gooseberry, bell pepper, basil, asparagus. Overwhelmingly herbal/vegetal without much primary fruit or complexity overall. A fine everyday wine for summer.

Flinty, lemon-like, decent acid. Finish doesnt have length.

Sauvignon Blanc always lets you know it's there in the line up. Then it's just a matter of intensity.

2013. Nicely balanced. Very good aromatically. Mouthcoating finish without being over the top

This is a pretty nerdy Sancerre. It definitely is showing a funny little funk on the nose that is consistent on the palate-- but that doesn't distract from the bright acidity or minerality. Cement tank fermented in the traditional fashion.


Over delivers for the price. Small production with just 12 hectares of vines planted in the 80's.
