Apr 16th, 2016It's 70 degrees and I don't care that it is going to snow this weekend. Tastes like springtime in a glass! Light floral and citrus, crisp and delicate. Looking forward to warm days ahead!

Love this wine. You can't do much better for $14. Reminiscent of Sancerre with its bright acid, citrus and mineral notes but it is a little weightier and the palate. It's not a very complex wine but it is crisp, refreshing and just plain delicious. I could drink this on the patio all day.

Aug 21st, 2015Another winner white from France. Interesting jacquere 100%. Slightly vicious with great acids. Paired well with cod with citrus gastrique. Under $15 . Bomb

So boring and uninspiring. It doesn’t care about what food its pared with and temperature doesn’t seem to make much difference either. This is what I’d expect at a over hyped downtown tourist bistro for $8 a glass. This is a very one dimensional white wine, with the best thing going for it is its price. Yes it has citrus, but that was to be expected. It has a tiny amount of yeast too but that’s about it. I find it totally cliche’ for what it is. This wine may not deserve an 8, because it’s not bad in any way, but the issue is it has absolutely NOTHING to say, so I can’t rate it higher for this reason. I’ve had less perfect wines, but with much more to say. Not impressed at all.

100% jacquere
Fairly astringent, could be more crisp/mineral
