Sancerre, Central Vineyards, Loire Valley, France
A beautiful golden yellow in color leads to a delightful aroma of freshly squeezed lemons, with hints of oranges and minerality. There is a fresh, crisp, clean taste to this wine. A saline taste at first that gives way to good citrus favors. A good minerality of river rocks and limestone on the backend. I can see anyone sipping this on a warm summer evening and enjoying the hell out of it.

Big difference in Sancerre and Sauvignon Blanc even though there isn’t a difference there is a huuuuge difference I taste. I love Sancerre. I don’t like most Sauvignon Blanc’s. 🧐 oh the irony...

Dec 21st, 2016Ah, the oranges and lemons. Nice minerality as well. It's balmy in the south (finally back in the states and enjoying better wine). This wine makes the heat bearable. I love Sancerre. It's my new wine infatuation.
