Domaine de la Vauvise
Les Trois Terroirs Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc
Sancerre, Central Vineyards, Loire Valley, France
You get the chalkiness associated with Sancerre, but besides that, this one is cross dressing as a New Zealander. There's a bit of an identity crisis here.

Desperate, I bought two bottles at TJ's. Ugh...I'm not sure what's going on with this wine but it's not good. Musty..and tart. Maybe a bad batch?

Tart and not as smooth as I was hoping. Would be a good summer wine.

Slightly sweet, and a bit tart. Would make for good outdoor, daytime, summer wine.
