Rather warm and relatively tamed/restrained. I got some waxy texture and floral notes. Acid is crisp. On the first sip I thought it’s a good Chablis, then thought a Macon.. In the vein of Hubert Lamy.. not so much Sauv Blanc signature to me.

French but no BBC: Easy to guess this as a SB, quite green and tart despite the ripeness. Not much oak influence surprisingly as a previous taster noted. Didn't transcend the varietal but very good example nonetheless, but you can get Vacheron for half the price.

2017 pursang Very true to the varietal. Not much barrel influence. Gooseberry ginger and grass. Very grassy mineral in the mouth. Nice limey limestone mineral finish. Some peach/ tropical notes with air Very good. Long, balanced. Spicy and strong at some moments then feminine. Changes 96

Fragrant, classic sancerre nose.
Quite restrained, lean and fresh with nice length. Not the depth of best vintages

Rich minerality with zesty lime notes, stone fruits. This got better with some air and hd a lovely salinity on the palate.
