July 20, 2011 - Oh my. Soaring nose of buttery popcorn with this intense nuttiness mixed with dried herbs, roasted lemon, and tangerine rind. Super balance. This wine is extremely complex and delightful. Love it.

7/16/2010 (link) 93 points(Jacques Puffeney Arbois Cuvée Sacha) Light lemon yellow color; butter, hazelnut, savory, mineral nose; buttery textured, tasty, very tangy, tart lemon, mineral, baked lemon palate with depth and medium acidity; medium-plus finish (nice to have a good bottle of this again; the one a few days ago with so much reduction was clearly just an anomaly)

7/14/2010 (link) 83 points(Jacques Puffeney Arbois Cuvée Sacha) Sulfur, reduction nose; nutty, reduction palate that exhibits just too much sulfur to be appealing; medium finish (roughly 50/50 Savagnin and Chardonnay, hence the name; I really enjoyed and bought a bottle of this several months back, so I'm hoping my bottle doesn't show the reduction that this one did)
