  This has aged beautifully. More reminiscent of Burgundy than many Sancerres Rouges. Nose has a black cherry, forest floor, rocky notes, too. Some spice - perhaps from the oak. Palate brightly acidic, lifting incredible cherry fruit and subtle underlying earth tones. Some mushroom tones. Again, some spice, and a mineral texture supporting. Tannins resolved. Not a terribly long finish and complexity not hugely high, but there. SOmewhere between Bourgogne and village level juice in quality.

  Nice ruby color. Cherry on the noise. Nice balance. Like my favorite Oregon PN’s.

  The two previous notes sum this up nicely.
  I get a smokey essence from the Hippolyte Reverdy Rose' and Sauvignon Blanc as well.
  I prefer those to the Rouge, but this is still very nice. Light and food-friendly as has been mentioned. Slightly tart and spicey. Can't say that I'd buy it again, but I am very glad I had the chance to experience it this one time.
  Traditional Pinot glass on PnP, though some air did seem to enhance the complexity.

  Red ruby hue. Iodine and cherry pits on the nose. Crisp, slightly tart cranberry and red cherry flavors brimming on the palate. Bright acidity and subtle tannin leading to a moderately long finish of red berry and grippy stone. Excellent with shrimp in dill-mustard sauce over pasta.

  I love Sancerre Rouge - I think there's a slight smokiness reminiscent of pacific northwest pinot. The color on this one was a beautiful pale red, with some age showing on the rim. Bright red cranberries and sour cherries - I might guess it were a sangiovese if I were reading the label. Lots of acid, but well balanced for having w/ food. At with ravioli, pine nuts, mushrooms, and vodka sauce.
