Hubert Brochard Cotes des Monts Damnés Sancerre 2014
Sancerre, Upper Loire, Loire, FranceFrom Chavignol's steep Cotes des Monts Damnés comes this lees-cushioned Sancerre. Domaine Brochard dates to the 16th century. Here, forty-year-old vines bring quiet and persistent concentration to this medium bodied white. A blanket of cream carries Meyer lemon and green apple over a bed of river stones to a crisp, stony finish. There's a lovely breath of fresh herbal grasses on the finish. This will age very well, so lay a couple down to enjoy in the future.Tasted: 23 March 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $47.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
