Nice Sancerre, the gun smoke at the back makes me want to watch a western. Sancerre Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc.

Notes of grapefruit and chalky minerals. No oak influence - fermented in stainless steel. I much prefer Sancerre to NZ Sauv Blanc. Cleansing acid finish. Excellent with a mature cheddar. 16.5+.

Hella grapefruity but with oxidative/nutty/honeyed notes and no pyrazines to speak of...delish, but never woulda guessed Sancerre in a million years!

Tasted in wine class: had the green apple, grapefruit and flinty minerality but still seemed plump and simple for a Sancerre. Fairly average.

Nice complex sauvignon expressing tertiary aromas still keeping varietals.
Balanced mouthful and good acidity. Recommended

Pretty textbook Sancerre. Very mineral and metallic. A distinctive green vegetal character. High acid. Maybe a whisper of stone fruit.
