Nice wine marred by way too much SO2. Full and rich with snappy acidity.

On this Wednesday, "Hump Day", I have opened the 2019 Domaine Claude Riffault Sancerre Les Boucauds.

On the nose I am getting lime, white peach, pear, melon, gooseberry, nectarine and minerals.

On the palate is good notes of lime, white peach, grapefruit, pear, minerality and some flinty stone.

This is a beautiful Sancerre medium bodied wine with medium + acidity that moves nicely into a long fresh citrus mineral finish. I hope everyone's week is going well as we continue to move quickly into spring. What a beautiful week we have been having with springtime temperatures. Please stay safe and healthy and enjoy the rest of your week. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂
