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.

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!

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.

Light yellow color. Gooseberry and ripe cocktail fruit aroma. Plump ripe white fruit flavor and concentrated. Rich for a Sancerre. Adequate acidity for balance but I think the fruit has the upper hand, if only slightly. Delicious, with a long finish. I would drink this young while still fresh.

Love it. Aromas of mango, peach, sweet lime, chalk dust, elderflower and minty herbs, a little hint of privet blossom too. Fresh but rather full and ripe, a softer version of this wine. Finishes mineral and juicy, with lots of citrus as well as some sweeter fruits, just suspicions of green Sauvignon stuff, it is mainly fruity. Honestly I dunno if I could pick out the cultivar in a blind tasting, which is pretty rare when it comes to Sauvignon. Really good stuff, should develop nicely for 5+

Very nice Sancerre. Alcohol content higher than typical but well balanced.

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!
