  Would be a fine Sencere, but slightly spoiled by a hint of oxydation

  2/25/2021 - Stephen Rash Likes this wine:

  Golden yellow in color and clear in the glass.
  
  Day 1: aromas of melon, peach, grapefruit, and jasmine on the nose. Tastes of cantalope, grapefruit, white flowers, and salinity on the palate. Medium bodied with medium(+) acidity. Long, saline finish.
  
  Day 2: the nose became a little more tropical with the addition of aromas of banana which took me by surprise. Tastes of melon, grapefruit, citrus pith, and salinity on the palate.
  
  This was drinking superbly. Great texture, elegant, and enjoyable!!

  Krydret og lett moden lukt med hyllebusk. Kraftig smak av fersk treverk, fast ettersmak, litt ureine noter. Var nokk bedre for noen år siden

  Clear, straw-colored Sancerre: crisp and with balance on the palate; minerally finish.Paired nicely with baked salmon and crab meat and asparagus

  Just where I like Sancerre. Lively but smooth. Hint of damp cellar adds interest, does not detract from enjoyment. Drink soon.
