  April 23, 2023 - With Sushi…
  Nice edge still very fresh.
  Match book flint, citrus lime more than lemon, steely edge, mild green apple. Started to fade around 90 minutes .
  Great QPR

  May 11, 2021 - Grass, elderflower, cream, gooseberry, pear, almond on the nose. Medium - body, a little alcohol on the finish surprisingly, a little green and overly vegetal on the palate. Nice chalky minerality on the finish. This improved a little with air but the balance is out for me.

  August 9, 2020 - PnP, chilled. Even better than our previous bottle on 3/20/19 as this bottle seemed to be more integrated. Along with the grapefruit, hay, and herbal notes there were some notes of pineapple, along with a streak of minerality. The acidity is medium to plus, which makes this a very crisp, mouth cleansing quaff. Could hold for another couple of years.

  March 8, 2020 - This is an outstanding Sancerre - in my limited experience of good Sancerre! Very light straw, silvery colour. Fruity and slightly floral nose (but no mineral) - green apples, a little elderflower, very fresh. More complex in the mouth than on the nose - with a little dry chalk behind the fruit. The fruit is green apple, maybe some pear drop, perhaps nectarine. Lovely and fresh and with some good complexity. A lingering fruit finish
