Rich, but with mouth tingling acid and tons of exotic citrus. Some pine and pine-sol on the nose. Body is a little gras but that’s the vintage.

Jul 31st, 2022Dried clover, caramel, golden raisins, all perched on a scimitar of acid. A faint echo of sweetness but mostly chiseled, dry and tart. Florals details that seem etched in stone

Feb 11th, 2022This is 🔥🔥🔥. Lots of extraction and that extra acidity. Rich, but not round; young but already delicious. And made by one of the greatest mustaches in the Loire. (would be THE greatest is not for stiff competition from Jo Landron) Get you some of this.

May 4th, 2015Nice, but a little too lean. Needed some weight to give it some balance. But a solid oyster wine

Dec 20th, 2022Ripe apple, floral, crisp, energy and some roundness to balance it all. Always Good Chenin from Jacky Blot.
Pommes mures, floral, vif, de l’energie et de la rondeur qui balance le tout. Toujours bon du Jacky Blot.
