April 9, 2024 - Stunning Sancerre here, at its zenith, fill with all the intensities and brightness one could want from this domaine, but with a sousant of richness (despite the vintage) that really took this to another level. Gooseberries, lime, wet stones, very long. Everyone loved it.

January 14, 2023 - Aired in bottle for few hours already. Leftover sample from Asparagus. Drank in Gabriel Standart.
Appearance is clear, medium intensity, yellow lemon colour. Thin legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of passionfruit, green mangoes, gunpowder. Developed.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13%), medium body. Medium+ flavur intensity with flavours of green mangoes, passionfruit, slight grassy herb, flinty stony minerality with bits of gunpowder, touch of citrus lemon oil. Medium+ finish. Texture a little more oily as it warms up,
Very good quality. Lovely Sancerre. Feels like 5+ years younger. Great provenance. -

May 1, 2021 - Robe jaune dorée;
Nez en richesse, sur un fruité jaune quasi compoté avec des notes d'herbes vertes fraîches, un petit qqchose de salin en arrière plan & qques notes de citrons confits. Bel ensemble en fraîcheur & vivacité.
Bouche ample & grasse en attaque, sur un fruité à chaire jaune riche, l'ensemble se resserre en milieu de bouche, l'acidité fait son apparition ainsi que que des notes salines & crayeuses. Finale salivante, sur des notes d'herbes vertes séchés & fraîches. Fort agréable!!!! -

June 7, 2020 - Sound light color but noticeable spritz. Varietal green aromas, but then some cabbage. Stripped texture not at all like Boulay and bizarre flavors with an awful, bitter finish. Yikes, some major bacteriologic problems here.
