    January 18, 2022 - Excellent more balanced and intergrated than some of the bottles I have had. Shows typicity on the nose of Sancerre in the mouth the freshness and green flavours one would expect then finishes with the smooth gentleness of the subtle intergrated oak.

    January 12, 2022 - Crisp,dry green fruit flavour profile. The little bit of weight and character that you would expect from a good winemaker with good terroir but not is best vintage. Has not aged as well as 2008 or 2010. Looking forward to the 2018.

    June 19, 2021 - This is ok with food but last couple of bottles don’t seem so well balanced.
    Still a good QPR though.
    Looking forward to my stash of 2018 which is supposed to be an excellent vintage for Sancerre

    January 22, 2021 - Slightly less substantial at this stage compared to the 2012. Has a slight fresher edge upon entry . I would anticipate it will smooth out over the next year or so, if Inhave that much time lol

    December 10, 2020 - This wine just makes me laugh. Every time i take my first taste from a new bottle it just blows me away with balance, length and complexity without ever heavy. In it’s youth it threatened to be too oaky. It is not it just helps with the middle and smooths out the Sauvignon acidity.
    Truly great QPR
