Vieilles Vignes Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2020

My last bottle of the 2020, one of the riper versions I’ve had of this consistently excellent cuvée. Such deeply ripe gooseberry fruit that it crosses over into tropical. But there’s loads of freshness in the form of limestoney mineral scents. Ripe and deep on entry, but then the sneaky acids and the minerality clamps down, making the finish mouthwatering. Terrific accompaniment to our simple broiled haddock weeknight dinner. — 14 days ago

Tropics is the new Sancerre. Hard to find lean or green versions with global warming.

Pur Sang Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2005

Tasted blind. Light gold color. Exotic nose. Notes of citrus, grapefruit, tangerine, lemongrass, cut green apples and a little pineapple. Goes great with the cheese and snacks we have. I’m immediately in Sancerre world with my guess. Very mineral in it’s mouth feel, lots of acidity. I guess Cotat as the producer. This is a fun wine, and really well made. — 5 years ago

Vieilles Vignes Chignin Jacquère 2017

I don’t know if it’s the five years of age, but it was short in the mouth despite promising beginnings. The nose was absolutely lovely. — 4 years ago

Petit Chablis Chardonnay 2018

Another terrific vintage. Nothing petit about this Chablis. Give it a quick 15 minute decant. — 5 years ago

Blanc Etc... Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Dagueneau has a beautiful range of wines—with the “Silex” label at the top. This “Blanc, etc.” is considered a more accessible, youthful bottling made from biodynamically farmed, younger vines, vinified & aged in stainless steel for a fresh & focused profile.

In the glass, this wine is pale lemon, with crystalline notes of gooseberry, honeydew, quince, starfruit, kumquat, lemon zest, chamomile, fennel, next to oystershell, gunflint & wet stones, lifted by a racy acidity and balanced by a medium alcohol and body.

It offers purity, texture & tension as well as versatility in terms of food-pairing prospects.
