Sancerre, Central Vineyards, Loire Valley, France
Thats real pretty. Sancerre with some flesh. Now don't get me wrong. I am not tawlkin CA Sauv Blanc flesh cause the bite is there. That's a great intro to Sancerre if you are looking to show someone around.

This is so nice. Great acidity, lemon and so smooth. Note to self: drink more Sancerre.

Understated white fleshy fruits, yet prominent. Smooth and wholesome yet unoaked. No astringent phenolics. Really well balanced. I don't think I like Marlborough anymore.

Clean crisp acid well balanced with round fruit. Exceptionally long pleasant linger gradually rounds out, exposing more woody overtones of -- ?faint cedar? Really great for sipping, appetizers... Maybe light foods? Love it!!! 9/10

Jul 24th, 2016What can I say about this beautiful Sauvignon Blanc from Sancerre, other than vines are 40-87 years and aged on lees for 10-14 months 60% oak casks, and 20% barrels. How about having the complexity and finish of a Château Smith Haut Lafitte without the need for Sémillon. Wow!

Not your normal Sancerre. Big full body, chalky minerality. Closer to white burgundy than Sancerre. Missing the grass
