Domaine Jacky Preys

Blanc Du Val De Loire Silex Sauvignon 2018

Razzy, with a bouquet of lemon verbena and oregano immersed in lime and chalk. Real depth here, with gooseberry predominate, and fresh sage a close second. Tangerine and grapefruit pith paying dividends. Generous, with the acid to back it up. Highly recommended.

Aging very well. Medium lemon color. Pronounced aromas and flavors of ripe cooked citrus (lemon, lime pie, grapefruit and a hint of gooseberries) and hints of grass and oak. #loire #pouillyfumé #pouillyfume #sauvignonblanc — 6 years ago

Domaine des Huards (Michel Gendrier)

Romo Cour-Cheverny Romorantin

A touch of reduction that smells like Riesling petrol. Waxy fruits, toasted nuts. Massive acids and structure, but only 13% alc. A serious kind of fun wine. #romorantin #courcheverny #loire — 8 years ago

Think what you will and say what you will, I feel badly for any other #Rueda winery and many other #loire and #bordeaux wineries because this is very very decent #sauvignonblanc and it is so inexpensive. — 3 years ago

La Mercy-Dieu Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2015

White gold to light straw. Faintest sweet propane note shows grapefruit peel and green apple, flinty and broken rocks, lemon oils, lime pith and cold fat. Rich lemon juiciness with zest of lime, salted lemon, white grapefruit. Citrus rich fruitiness booms, but finish of chalky and dry grapefruit pith brings a refreshing salivation, instantly and stunningly impressive.

Of the #lesparcellaires collection this seems riper and more concentrated fruit and brighter red fruit than the 2017 or 2019 Brezes. I believe that there are some stems here and more clay soils. Yummy. Typicity #cabernetfranc #saumurchampigny #loire #france — 6 years ago

L'Essentiel Reuilly Pinot Noir 2014

Vintage 2014 / Remarkable #pinotnoir from the #Loire area. Raspberry in an open and seductive smell. Frivolous taste with elegance. The wine ripened in new barrels, well integrated in the wine. This wine can stand proudly next to Burgundy. — 8 years ago

Domaine Guiberteau

Saumur Rosé Blend 2021

Well, I guess it should come as no surprise, but Guiberteau’s rosé is equally as delicious as any of his other wines. Living legend.

There are so many good value #cabernetfranc from #Loire and I feel fortunate because I prefer this style, light, juicy, crunchy and fresh almost tart style to some of the more expensive more complex styles. — 5 years ago

Wonderful. Already evolved aromas of honey, hay, lemon pie. On the palate it played between glycerin and tartness. So good. #og #sancerre #loire #france — 6 years ago

Domaine Delaporte

Chavignol Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Lean aromatic spot of light, clean, almost frosted lemon, lime juice, lime pith, and gooseberry aromas. Chalky. With zippy, bright lemon zest, nectarine, dried starfruit, green-white underripe blackberries, black currant leaf, and grapefruit pith. Amazing Sancerre with buoyancy and ethereal grace.

Vignoble Poiron-Dabin

Seduction Vin de Pays du Val de Loire Pinot Gris 2017

Vintage 2017 / My brother in law brought this wine in France from the #loire and said: try this. I opened it for Sunday lunch with ripe Guadeloupe melon with ham. It surprised me, #pinotgris is seldom seen in the Loire area. It has a shy spicy smell and an beautiful balance in taste with refined sweetness. Awesome effort of the producer. — 8 years ago
