Strong citrus notes - lemon and a bit of grapefruit, pear, along with some riper, almost tropical notes. Good acid on palate, but accompanied by a bit of alcoholic heat. Pleasing minerality, but underlying a quite ripe, almost floral and tropical palate. This is not precisely what I expect in Sancerre, but 2016 was a ripe vintage and this seems to be the result.

Rather strong yellow but there was no wood used, smells and tastes more ripe wth an intens bouquet, light citrus, peach, and exotic fruits on the nose, on the palate floral, peach and white flowers, some minerality, restrained acidity, rather creamy, a bit too ripe and sweeter than other Sancerres which I ususally drink,
