May 7, 2009 - Very good. Classic sauvignon blanc nose, good acidity and minerality. Paired well with salad Nicoise.

May 2, 2009 - A Sancerre with a decidedly steely personality. Fresh pink grapefruit flavors and minerals. Quite prominent acid, which gives a sensation of austerity on the finish.

February 18, 2009 - very pale in color. great balance of heat and acidity, bright grapefruit, lemon, little fizzy in the mouth, just beautiful. everything i love in a sancerre with a little extra. very crisp and full of fruit.

Sancerre with Oysters are Still My Favorite Food and Wine Combo, Episode #498, 7/8/2008 (link) 89 points(Lucien Crochet Sancerre Le Chene) #2; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-golden; NOSE-little tight, but deep and interesting; this smells like Marzipan; some FeBreeze action; TASTE-tastes like a heavy intense mint; peppermint evergreen element that is extremely heavy; so minty fresh on the palate; some subtle apple; very interesting, but not my cup of tea; really well made; GV-89
