This was surprisingly wonderful. Delicate aroma but so full of flavor, good acidity and length.

Alphonse Mellow Sancerre Moussiere 2011. Racy, crisp and rich at once. Vinous analog to a Cadillac CTS-V?

Sancerre Rouge 2009 || Very ripe black cherry with hints of turned soil. Maybe I was wrong to expect something more delicate.

Nice Loire Valley Pinot. Tons of weighty fruit to go along for the ride.

Quite racy with high toned red cherry and strawberry. Good integration of oak and a twist of burgundian funk. But you can taste the colder climate! Slight caramel aftertaste. Food wine.

Fresh lemon - smooth drinking. One of the best Sancerres I’ve had in a while

Loire reds are a new thing to me but this was really pleasant.
