July 15, 2013 - Blind Tasting 2010 Sancerres and Pouilly Fumes (Rich & Peggy's House, Los Altos, CA): Darkest yellow of the lineup. Yellow fruited nose, slightly honeyed and toasty, like cornflakes. Medium to full bodied with medium acidity. Ripe yellow plums, rocks, slightly smoky and savory. Outlier in the flight in terms of weight and flavor. Interesting but not as fresh as many of the others. (my 5th, group's 9th)

January 20, 2013 - Even at 93 points this may be underrated. Soft and delicate but great layers of tropical fruit. Slight effervescence upon opening leads the way to this oenadventure.
