Le vin aborde une robe or pâle aux reflets verdâtres. Le nez dégage des notes d'agrumes et de cailloux mouillés. La bouche est bien tendu. C'est sec et goûteux sur de jolies amers, avec toujours cette minéralité rappelant les cailloux mouillés, pas trop pointu et bien ficelé!

Beau sauvignon blanc de la Loire. Au nez, agrumes, citron et contrairement à des sauvignons blancs du Nouveau-Monde, absence de notes herbacées. En bouche, belle acidité franche ainsi qu'une belle rondeur. Bu avec tartinade de saumon fumé et tranches de saumon fumé. Bel accord.

Delicious! Another winner SB from the Loire Valley and offered by thewinetobuy.com. This continues to demonstrate France's ability to produce SB in such a way that is completely enjoyable and not overbearing. The nose and palate are evenhanded in the allotment of those classic, slight citrus nuances yet not allowing any of the grassy elements that I particularly don't care for. A winner. Enjoy.

Had during a party so no formal notes. Quality wine with good minerality. Nice crisp acidity, citrus, and grassy notes. Wish it was served at a slightly warmer temp as it was definitely more expressive towards room temp. Usually a big fan of Kermit Lynch and this did not disappoint. If you are a Sancerre fan this is worth a try.

A very fine Sancerre look-alike. Grapefruit, grass, citrus pith, mineral water. 87-88

Fresh and tangy, with grapefruit but also minerals, herbs, and good length.

Textbook Loire sauvignon puts many a Sancerre to shame

Gorgeous, classic gooseberry nose. Crisp palate with smooth, rocky minerality. Straightforward and correct.

Grassy, fresh, very mineral. Works at $20. Very crisp and vibrant. Interesting, maybe needs to flesh out a little bit.
