A significant improvement since last bottle was tasted. The wine has lost its clumsiness and has nicely found its focus and zip. Excellent balance, nice savory notes with citrus fruit, herbes and spices. Great value. Should drink nicely for years to come

Retail $22. 100% Sauvignon Blanc. Master the World tasting Kit 236C. I have to give it to the folks at Master the World, they are able to get some really interesting wines from places that most people in this country have never heard of. Case in point. I can't ever remember seeing a Quincy on the shelves here in the U.S. (but honestly, I have never really gone looking for one, either). Along with Menetou-Salon, this tiny appellation produces some solid Sauvignon, usually at around half the price of its bigger sibling, Sancerre. A lovely nose of grapefruit and mango with some green apple and Asian pear, this really is a delight. The palate is singing with a lovely tartness and a mineral salinity which both help to accentuate the bountiful fruit. Excellent.

honey lemon aroma, broad slightly dull entry, herbal and delicate with a limited body. Well done.

Pretty good. Citrus and mineral notes, fairly acidic, some bitterness on the back end. Not a fruit forward style.

Very nice wine w/hint of sweetness, mineral notes & stone fruits. Nicely aromatic as well. Delicious!
