Elegant, harmonious aromas of ripe apples, a bit of honey, herbs and a bit of salt. Elegant palate of tart and baked apples, some nuts, herbs and a bit of minerals. Flavors are seamless. Nice acids on a medium body. Taking on aged, tertiary characteristics which I enjoyed. Lacks some depth and complexity for this to be scored higher. But this is a lovely drink now. 91+

Pear, grapefruit, and lemon citrus, with notes of apple and moderate salinity/minerality on the medium finish, with strong acidity. This is a good value at a little over $20.

Nice. Dense, rather long, on the tart side, lacking a certain definition but of quality. Good with simple seafood on a summer night.

I believe this bottle was off. Incredibly flabby and uninteresting. Did not taste at all like a Sancerre. Damn. I was looking forward to this.

Couleur jaune très pâle. Nez délicat qui s’ouvre sur des arômes de fleurs blanches. Bouche précise, belle intensité avec notes de citron tout en offrant une belle sensation minérale.

Very pale colour. A fair bit of stones on the nose, as well as some ripe peach aromas on the back end. The palate shows a fair bit of pale yellow fruit, as well as potent minerality. A bit of roundness in texture keeps the acidity from being too sharp. Very well-balanced and an excellent bistro-style wine.

Camphor and white flowers on the nose. On the palate, pear, tangerine, and a touch of honey, with strong acidity and a medium finish. Good value for the money.

Beautifully composed nectarines, florals, and peaches on the nose. The palate buzzed with acidity and some tart citrus tones. Great combination of edgy citrus and soft florals. Ovide never fails.

Tons of citrus and wet rocks on the nose, perhaps even a slight bit of floral spice. The palate has a stern stony character and just a slight hint of tart stone fruit. Mouthwatering acidity binds everything together. So good...

Un beau sancerre fin et équilibré.

Le nez est citronné, avec des notes d'herbes fraiches, de menthe. L'attaque en bouche est vive, ce vin plein d'énergie est déjà très expressif. De corps moyen voire léger, élancé, avec un style aérien séduisant, la classique minéralité, crayeuse. Un Sancerre joyeux, déjà bien ouvert, il s'entend comme un larron en foire avec les pétoncles poêlées. 90-91 pts

Il m'a semblé équivalent sinon un brin supérieur au VV 2010 qui m'avait beaucoup charmé: beau nez d'agrumes et de pomme verte, un peu de tendreté en bouche, contrebalancée par une belle finale saline. Un producteur qui récolte assez tardivement et de vieilles vignes de 50 ans sur cette cuvée. Un style qui n'est pas sans rappeler Boulay. À 32$ irréprochable. 90-91
