  Troligtvis överlagrad, sherrysill färg och smak, korken gick sönder vid öppning

  Correct, sans plus. Se boit bien, mais ne fait pas vibrer. Payé 52$ en 2016, maintenant le 2016 est 70$, ne vaut pas le prix pour moi.

  Very thin, neutral whitish-green color. Ripe and quite fruit-driven nose with aromas of juicy white fruits, golden apples, some honeydew melon, a little bit of herbal greenness, light currant leaf tones and a hint of golden currants. The wine is light-bodied, crisp and acid-driven on the palate with bright flavors of fresh red apples, ripe yet tart citrus fruits, some herbal green tones, a little bit of hay, a hint of chalky minerality and a crunchy touch of starfruit. The high acidity makes the wine feel bright, crunchy and enjoyably structured. The finish is dry, quite light yet enjoyably intense with bright flavors of herbal bitterness, steely minerality, some key lime, a little bit of ripe golden apples, a hint of grassy greenness and a touch of golden currants.
  
  A very classy and classic Sancerre with a great combination of varietally typical green tones and high acidity and more concentrated tones of ripe fruits and understated nuances of richness. Although I'm no big fan of SB, this wine hits the buttons and although it is drinking very nicely now, I can see it benefiting from further cellaring. A well-made example of lighter-end Sancerre.
