Quite similar to my previous note. A bit more grass and richness to the fruit. Not lacking energy, but there is something of an international style here. Good.

Very bright and green on the nose with heaps of gooseberry and fresh cut grass. This has echoes of Marlborough SB, but there is the lovely chalkiness from Sancerre here. Racy acidity, but somewhat in control. Not the longest finish, but certainly leave the mouth very clean. Good QPR.

The wine looks yellow colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like apple. It tastes like pear and honeysuckle. The body is medium. The wine has polished texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

P and p from half bottle. Very pleasant sweet floral nose, a softer entry to a medium body with a milder, but typical grassy, acidic cut to it on the finish.

Sparkling, bright, very light gold color. Nose is an explosion of tropical fruits; mango, pineapple. Creamy mouthfeel. Soft tropic flavors more of lichie and mango. Sharp feel on back of tongue with medium finish. One of the fullist Sancerres I have had.

Lo ammetto sono di parte. Amo la Loira, i sauvignon e gli chenin blanc, e odio gli chardonnay, soprattutto quelli della borgogna. Lo so, nessuno è perfetto! Però questo vino è magnifico. Vi avviso: chi ama i bianchi morbidi, vellutati, con profumi e sapori di albicocca e pesca, stia alla larga da questo vino. Qui gli agrumi la fanno da padrone. Ho amato il 2010, son rimasto un po' deluso dal 2011, ma questo 2012 è spettacolare. Se il 2010 era una spremuta di pompelmo, qui il pompelmo si sente, ma più timido, incrociato con un meraviglioso cedro elegantissimo. Se poi penso che cosa solo 22 euro... domani 6 bottiglie non me le toglie nessuno.
PS: non saprò mai come sarà questo vino tra 5 anni, perché sono sicuro che me lo berrò prima, ma non mi meraviglierei se tenesse bene il tempo.

Grapefruit and grass on the nose. Some lemon nuance on the palate, but balanced acidity, and nice minerality on the finish. A little watery.

Bottiglia decisamente sottotono rispetto al solito standard.
Comunque non è avanzata. :-)

Si fa sempre una gran bella figura a portare questo vino a una cena tra amici. Perfetto poi su un carpaccio di vitello con fave e salsa di piselli.

Crisp and fresh a bit of chalk, gooseberries with a lovely veggie taste in an unequal dry sweet finish. Consistently real good wines.
