just about everything is together on this wine. Great stone fruit up front with minerals and herbs in the middle and the end. Sneaky acid that arrives just in time to clear the palate for the next sip. Perfect with the last of the season halibut.

The wine had evolved a little since last time. The nose was lovely with stone fruits and a pleasant minerality. The fresh acidity was less on the foreground letting other flavours come through. You could taste much better the ripeness of the fruit (more peach etc than just citrus) and the wine had gained roundness and complexity. Very nice indeed.

d'une couleur un peu verdâtre, donne déjà, lui, tout ce que de tels vins de Sauvignon blanc peuvent donner! Bouquet exubérant, typé, non boisé, aux arômes nets, ce à quoi succède une bouche aux saveurs insistantes, cristallines (si l'on peut dire), distinguée, avec cette vivacité qu'on attend de cette appellation et de sa voisine Sancerre. Très -très- bon.

Very lively and intens. Good minerality and fabulous refreshing acidity. Glad I have one more bottle of this.
