Melon stone fruit hybrid, served up on a bed of gravel. Powerful and long hot finish. Serve chilled. Beauty Sancerre.

Flinty and chalky. Fresh and bright with lemons and limes coming through on the long, long finish. Pure Sancerre here.

Affordable Sancerre at it’s finest. Ripe but restrained. Great balance between sour and sweet. Fruit, barnyard and flint.

Valentine's Day dinner with my Bahama mama at The Landing; a 200-year-old estate in Harbour Island's downtown. Originally the home of the island's first doctor, the colonial-style building served as Customs House and then a private club. It was built when Harbour Island was a ship building center. With the help of supermodel India Hicks, The Landing has been transformed into a charming 12-room boutique hotel with one of the hottest restaurants in town.

[Tasted on May 22, 2020 at Home]

Despite the age on the wine, the fruit is quite vibrant. Pale gold color with citrus on the nose. Grapefruit pith, lemon and a hint of mango, with flintiness and racy acidity.
