Opened and tasted wine at cellar temp. Started out good and got better as bottle and glass warmed. Fragrant nose and medium bodied on the palette. At just cooler than room temp, it is really nice. Citrus and pear with an unexpected plushness. But not enough acid or minerality for a Sancerre to generate a higher score. Very Paul Lato like. Was great with dinner of marinated and grilled chicken thighs.

Very Nice sauv blanc. Floral nose with pear, melon, and apple. Medium body with palette adding some lemongrass. Fresh and bright with a fairly long finish. Would be better if it was complicated with some minerality or salinity. Excellent QPR.
