I don't get it. I don't get all those people who proclaim this as better than Sancerre. It's better than Sancerre only if you hate all that is joyful and beautiful in this world.

Opened 30 minutes in advance. Complex aromas dominated by grapefruit, with melon, flowers and what not. Smooth creamy palate. Once again, a complex mix dominated by the white fruit family but with all sorts of exotic elements. Rich finish.
I have had very few Sauvignon Blancs that even came close to being this good. Maybe if I were inclined to pay up for Didier Dagueneau my experience would be different, but this is tremendous for the price.

A Good Wednesday: Mix Tape: Seleque, '97 Baumard, '98 Moines, '11 Roche Blanche, '98 Clape, '98 Jamet, '89 Sorrel, '95 QdC; 2/23/2022-2/25/2022: Complex nose of pine, citrus, grass. Says Suavignon Blanc, but with everything dialed up a bit. Complex palate: grapefruit, melon, minerality and acidity. Drinking well, showing little signs of its age. Very good.

Steely, fruity, and fresh. Better than most Sancerre at a fraction the price (including D. Dagueneau!).
