Henri Bourgeois Sancerre Jadis and Etienne Henri Verticals (Grande Bretagne Hotel, Athens, Greece): The difference between this cuvee and Jadis are readily noticeable. This is sweeter on the nose , rounder, fruitier, showing its tropical side much earlier than Jadis and minerality is flinty here. The wine maker claims that the differences are more due to the terroir (silex here vs. Kimmerigian for Jadis) although mush more new oak is used here, and this is obvious. Med+ body, rounder than Jadis but still crispy and long. 93+

Mineral but also tropical fruit which detracts a bit. Not as dry as your traditional Sauvignon blanc.
