Wow, wow, wow. Really impressive. All sorts of coiled bitter pithy citrus, torn mint, spent shotgun shells, button mushroom and a little gingery-saffron-marmalade from the botrytis. Raging acid. I mean, woah, is it tart, but a real generosity of texture on the palate keeps things together. A first from this producer for me and absolutely on point for mature Sancerre. Drink now or in the next 3-5.

Awesome Sancerre with creamy texture. If you like Sauvignon blancs here is what the old world has to showcase for. Delicate melon, 🍐, apricot with a hint of grass and clay. Complex yet approachable great length for a beautifully balanced white.
