  Nice dark ruby color. Bouquet of spice and earthy cherries. Very smooth and well balanced. Light to medium bodied with flavors of earth, dark cherries, hints of smoke. Long finish with acidity and tannins added to the dark fruit. Likely meant for short term. Drink now to 2026. Almost a Cru Beaujolais meets Burgundy. Old world in style. Definitely worth trying. Pretty rare to find red Sancerre imported, even more so in the kosher world

  Old World style . Nice deep Ruby color. Tangy berries on the bouquet. Light medium body with good fruit and good balance. Flavors of cherry, Tangy berries, Earth. A very subtle style but still excellent. Long tannic finish. This likely has further development to go in the bottle. Approachable now it may be better in a year or two. Quite honestly the more I drink this the more it grows on me. I definitely want to revisit this soon. Also red sancerre is very uncommon even in the non-kosher world so if you like red wines especially Pinot Noir I definitely recommend trying it
