Super green for the vintage. Lacking concentration. I thought it might be Quincy or a cheap Sauvignon from Gascony.

Great summer sipper. Light, a little spicy, grassy, minerals, what's not to like? Nice with a zesty salad.

Nicely aromatic-- rose florals and lemon citrus. Viscous mouthfeel. Classic flint comes out with a little air.

Such a gorgeous example of silex influenced Sauvignon blanc. A pristine example of the appellation. Thanks #sommselect
