The wine of the evening is the 2020 Domaine Dominique et Janine Crochet Sancerre. From the Loire Valley Bué-en-Sanccerrouis. 100% Sauvignon Blanc.

On the nose there is lime, white peach, grapefruit, passionfruit, herbaceous, minerality and wet river rock.

On the palate I can tell there is lime, grapefruit, pear, white peach, river rock and finty minerality.

This is a beautifully classic Loire Valley Sancerre that is medium bodied with a crisp fresh mouthfeel medium+ to high acidity with a long citrus stoney minerality finish. Have a great weekend and please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

Aging great Sancerre for a few years just concentrates and focuses all its best qualities. Perfect elegance, richness, high-toned minerality and that mango/papaya/gooseberry thing. #dominiquecrochet #sancerre

Very well made for 2013. Bone dry, saline, unripe redcurrant and red cherry, great acidity. Medium to light bodied.

2023 vintage. A bit more body than anticipated. Some mineral, some citrus, some crispy fruit. Pretty harmonious now. 10.22.24.

Domaine CROCHET sancerre :Yellow dress rather pale. Nose quite fruity with hints of citrus, lemon and some notes of yellow fruits. On the palate a wine always on the fruit, slightly full-bodied. Little length. Not a crush but good, served very fresh, it always goes through this heat.

Pineapple, peach, lime. Saline. Very bright acidity with almost salty-like finish. I paired it with Manchego cheese and Iberian ham. Wonderful!

$25, Moore Brothers, spicy and full for a Pinot - needs to sit for a few minutes before drinking
