Apple, wild flowers and grass on the nose. I can't remember the last time I had a Sancerre. This was nice, but that's about it. Full in flavor with a weighty feel, but crisp. Grassy and green tart apple flavors.

not very experienced with sancerre, but seemed a lot like fruity, citrusy NZ sauv. drank next to a Grande Cuvee Fournier Sancerre, which was much more minerally and more what I'd expect from a french SB. Maybe it's more my comfort zone, but I prefered this. Seems a nicely balanced, crisp sancerre with a great acidity. Nice apperitif or summer wine. Lots of fresh fruit and a grapefruit and jasmine nose. A little expensive at $28 though.

Carrollton, TX OL (Amici's): Very light yellow which smells of grapefruit—scent reminded me of many New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs. Very crisp wine with good acidity. Tasted single blind at an OL.
