Good, textbook, Sancerre. Good balance of fruit, grassiness, minerality and acidity. Food friendly.

Great nose with lots of crisp apple, and some wet stone minerality. I thought I got a bit of sweetness (RS?) on the palate, which probably made me feel like this was slightly less mineral driven than Sancerre like the Lucien Crochet (though from other vintages). …

Excellent! Would buy again. Recommend it. Granite, stone, hints of citrus.
