Super expressive on the nose and on the palate. Citrus/floral aromas and very expressive flavors. notes of lychee, honey, apple. Good acidity with a nice dry finish. Great to pair with sushi

I'm not a white wine drinker, this was given to me as a gift, but it's good. I'm having a glass right now, and even though I prefer dry wines, this isn't too sweet. Honestly, I think I can only drink one glass and that's it. I'm just not a white wine fan. :)

2 year anniversary trip in Long Island. Finding good wine there is a challenge. This made us happy.

Fantastic fruit and decent complexity, better than average Sancerre (automatically meaning Very Good Find), mostly citrusy notes with some stone fruit, delightful to the last drop

Another Sancerre rose; good minerality, light fruitiness but didn't blow my mind.
