Sancerre, Upper Loire, Loire, FranceStruck stone, lemon and chalk open this classic Sancerre, always a familiar sight on BC lists and shelves. The crisp, fresh, medium-bodied palate continues the flinty notes of the nose along with apricot fuzz, bright lemon, white grapefruit, tight white florals and youthful white peach. Acidity is shining and mineral laden and the finish is brisk and dry, calling for shellfish.Tasted: 20 March 2015Tasted by: Prices:

Sancerre, Upper Loire, Loire, FranceOpen fresh bright nose of citrus nose with flecks of bell peppers and grassy grapefruit aromas. The attack is fresh with a strong herbaceous, lime rind, mineral, citrus fruit flavour. Fish cakes, goat cheese or sashimi will all work here. Solid effort but it could do without the cork that clearly shaves off the most delicate edges of this wine.Tasted: 21 April 2014Tasted by: Prices:
