Wanted to pop one of these because my Delectable friend @Austin Hohnke had a bottle that seemed a little oxidative, but no worries with this bottle! It seems a little youthful and tight, actually. Wonderful nose opens with air to show intense limestoney mineral dust and lemony fruit. Crisp and intense in the mouth. Loads of limestone tones. As usual for Mont Damnes Sancerre, it ain’t that fruity, but damn it’s fine. I think @Austin Hohnke’s bottle was, unfortunately, a flawed or damaged bottle.
