$25 USD Very pale underripe lemon yellow with green hue. A golf ball size concentration of color at the core with a large water white rim. Complex, intense, youthful, slightly pungent, fresh cut grass,asparagus, with layers of flint,lime rind, white pepper, and meringue emerging as the wine warms in the glass. A dry wine with mouthwatering, taut, refreshing acidity. A touch of saline in the nose and on the palate. Very light body with a touch of astringency. 13% abv offers very little heat. The medium finish offers a subdued but balanced concentration flint, tart lemon curd, and touch of smoke. A good example of a midmarket Sancerre

Pear, apple, citrus, slightly perlant. Tendered, mineral, saline, refreshing.

Plutôt poire, pomme, agrumes, légèrement perlant. Tendu, minéral, salin, rafraîchissant. 🤤

Who says white wine can't age? This 17 year old French Sauvignon Blanc is still rocking!

Bright flavors grapefruit and lime but soft and easy to drink. Not too acidic
