Found this last(?) bottle in the corner of the cellar. Quite delicious. Excellent acid foils with very full and fat and long Old World - Sauvignon Blanc flavors. Some nutty oxidation, but nothing off-putting. Not that complicated, otherwise. I don’t think I would wait another 5 years for the next bottle, but I’m sure it would last in a proper cellar.

Refreshing, tart and excellent length as flavors linger. Likely in its sweet spot. Excellent with a salmon filet stuffed with crab. Best sauvignon blanc this summer.

Lovely citrus and mineral nose. Lots of minerals and acidity to cut the viscous weight of this wine. Some oak peaks through on the finish. DR is a rock star of Touraine.

Quite a bit of concentrations and flavors. Viscous with a lot of acidity and minerality. On the palette, citrus notes. Fresh and vibrant. The nose was spectacular. Best thing of the wine.
