Positively delicious in every aspect. Richly textured, robustly fruited, tensile, charming, savoury, much like @Wolfgang Weber

Earthy, but still a bit of cherry. Fantastic RED Sancerre. Well worth the adventure.

Subtle, tart, acidic, less intense than the 2006 I had previously. Dark fruit, forest floor. Fun wine

A ripe and modern Sancerre Rouge.. Very enjoyable Pinot Noir (global warming is really serious..)

Interesting expression of Pinot Noir. Fruity with a hint if earthiness that makes it interesting.
