April 13, 2024 - Light yellow with bronze highlights. Ripe fruit bouquet. Mature fruit flavor. A big, richly textured wine, it’s a little clumsy for Sancerre and on the very cusp of losing its freshness. Drink quickly.
Tasted this a couple of years ago. Has not aged well. -

October 2, 2023 - yellow straw to golden colour, concentrated
Nose of hydrocarbons, toasted oak, a little bit of vanilla and some floral notes
In the mouth the wine is rather dense, the taste is characterized by a clear ripe mango flavour and a little bit peach melted together with a gentle vanilla touch, fresh and almost salty with some carbonic inside. The finish is outstanding long! -

August 25, 2022 - Drank with Llanos, apps from Pitch. Love this wine, one of my favorite SB’s! Great minerality, zesty, and NOT like a CA or NZ SB! Fabulous!

August 20, 2021 - I've been wanting to try a pairing of Sancerre and Cheetos... Highly recommend!! The acidity of the wine was tempered by the cheesy saltiness of the Cheeto. It was fantastic on its own too with grassy lime with a faint peach note. Green apple on the tongue with minerality and citrus zest. Finish is nice and long.
