Community Tasting Notes 5

  January 28, 2016 - Loire Reds (and 4 vintages of Olga Raffault) (Jeff K's): I liked this better. The group was split. Light golden in color. Clean nose. Much fresher on the nose. Grapefruits and minerals. Lean. Very tart green apples on the palate. Tart acidity. Some grapefruit. I think this wine needs a bit of food to help it. Some Manchego cheese worked well.

  November 9, 2014 - For Marnie Sheets and Lynne Smiley as part of DDB’s 50th birthday and then DDb pulled one with (eggs) omellete. Lean, grassy, limestone and flint mark the profile.

  August 29, 2014 - 89/90. Very nice expression, good middle of the road Sancerre. I personally prefer more minerality than I find here (I detracted a point or two for that); light mineral notes, some flint, great fruit. Medium finish. Very good.
