Domaine Sylvain Bailly
Terroirs Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc
Nose is subdued but showing wet gravel, white flowers, underripe grapefruit and lemon peel. Palate is tart and medium body, showing more grass than I would expect - almost tennis ball esq. For a Sancerre, this has less than adequate acid and the finish comes off a bit flat for me.
