Domaine Trotereau
Quincy Sauvignon Blanc
All Sauvignon Blanc but it drinks almost like a Savennières. You can actually smell the minerals. The vines are planted in silex and pink limestone. I learned off the KL website that 50 years ago "the wines of Quincy were more recognized for their quality than Sancerre or Pouilly-Fume, and commanded a higher price." I now can see why.

Dec 12th, 2015Honeydew melon, gunpowder, lemon pulp, sea shells, wheatgrass. Vibrant acidity, oily texture, mineral driven, crisp citrus tart finish. Well rounded in every way which isn't always the case with Sauvignon Blancs.

Sep 24th, 2015Absolutely delightful and pronounced "Can-SEE" , I need more of this in my life. About 200 hectares in the 2nd oldest AOC in France. Just Southwest of Sancerre and slightly warmer. This wine is aromatic and will age with grace. Crisp green fruit flavors, like its neighbor Sancerre, but a little richer and a rounder mouthfeel. 2013 Trotereau Quincy #klw #quincy #trotereau
