2019 Domaine Vacheron Sancerre Rouge From 375mL 14% ABV
Paired with spicy Chinese stir fry, green vegetables.
Cork opened clean. Light ruby.
Nose - blueberry and huckleberry.
Taste - lovely blueberry at the front, medium acidity, developing with blueberry, light cherry, anise, light menthol. Rounded out by integrated oak, early cherries. Tastes fairly light bodied, even though it's 14%. Comes across as refreshing, crisp and easy to drink. Not super complex, but pulls you back for more & lingers on the tongue.
Delightful wine!
92/100

The last bottle I had was corked which was pretty disappointing, this one was not, showed wonderful crushing red fruit, liquorice and orange rind, medium bodied with a bright and chalky palate, slightly creamy mid-palate and a long fresh finish.

Six months after the prior: Again ruby with translucence at the edges. Beautifully savory, with good acidity. 14 percent stated ABV, but thankfully, not hot. Quite enjoyable over three nights.

Good "gastronomic wine". Light red in color, very mellow tannins, good bite/ refreshing acidity. Went very well with a meat stew. Ready now; do not think it will improve much with age.

Luscious red raspberry and Bing cherry fruit on the tongue, which matched grilled Coho salmon very well on our first night in Boston.
