August 21, 2022 - This was dynamite for me, medium minion for the wife.
Light yellow.
Nose rocking gooseberry, kiwi, grass, lots of citrus…
In the mouth this is like a medium Sancerre with "obesity", as Menetou-Salon defines it. Wouldn't have taken it blindly, but... Clearly, the midrange is fat and hides a bit of the minerality...
Good, but a little thin and with (our taste) misfocus as far as the minerality is concerned. "Oil gravel" is the worst kind...
However, very much looking forward to our next bottle from this producer as it is their finest bottling and both the wife and I enjoyed this entry level bottling... -

July 2, 2021 - From a 37,5 cl bottle. Color: (very) light yellow. Nose: mineral-citrus. Taste: refined apple and citrus, embedded in fine kimmeridgien minerality, very good acidty; all very welll balanced. The sauvignon-blanc alternative for the chardonnay-Chablis. An excellent wine! Ready to be drunk. 90-91.
