Very pleasant mixture of ripe fruit, sweet grassiness, and minerals on the nose. Full-flavored and balanced in the mouth. Surprising body. It’s got lots of herbal flavors, savory minerals, and only a whisp of fruit. Good (but maybe a tad lower than I expected) acids.

Med to med plus intensity of the greenish note on the nose, lemon zest, lemon curd, green apple and unripe pear, wet stone and chalky, hint of rubber band, white flower. Med plus acidity, med body, unripe pineapple finish. An elegant Sauvignon Blanc from Menetou Salon.

Neat wine with none of the usual green notes associated with Sauv. Blanc. Granny Smith apples with some lemon ginger and a soft yet crisp mouth feel.

Medium-bodied with vibrant apple and honeyed notes with a citrus rind finish. Was great with pasta in olive oil and garlic alongside fish.

L’ho aspettato perche e’ da Loir vicino Sanceer. Ma questo ha il gusto come New Zealand piuttosto. Piu frutta gusto anche non c’e male veramente. Secondo me Putite Bourgeois sarebbe meglio piu con il prezzo meno.
