High stakes fall baseball and a Sancerre rouge. This is quite nice for the difficult ‘21 vintage. Color is super light. Nose is quite fragrant, with wafting sweet cherry juice, a mid-toned floral note, and flinty crushed stone. Enters gently on the palate, with cherry juice leading, but a bitterish note quickly appears and accelerates on the slightly short finish. Overall, a fine effort given conditions, and lovely with a simply roasted chicken.

Showing very lean and dark for a warmer vintage, which just goes to show that the producer makes more difference than vintage! #thanksgiving2015

Gulpable! Great mouth feel, just the right amount of plump ripeness, balanced with a very dry finish.

Look out Bourgogne, Sancerre coming to get you! Nice fruit with plenty of clean earth.
