Intense nose of cracked wet limestone, citrus, and gooseberry. Densely- flavored too, with intense minerality. It has a denser, more viscous texture than most Sancerre, but not too much so. Surprisingly full but long and zesty. A Sancerre that clearly has spent some time at the gym.

There's a lot material here for a wine that is so light and airy. Magical balance of ripe tropical fruit, spicy-peppery pyrazines, bright acid cut and creamy roundness. Simultaneously classic Sancerre and utterly it's own animal. I would drink this all day.

My go to Sancerre. Perfect fruit, chalky limestone and a hint of spearmint. Mont Damnees for $20! Gotta love Dressner!

Very good stuff! Aromatic, crisp, mineral, stone fruit flavor profile.

Staycation 2018 @CAA ; Josie is upstairs FREAKING OUT and we enjoyed ridiculously good mussels in a lobster curry broth, caesar salad, pork + halibut. Solid night for romance, per Danny. As for the wine, not as dry as AUS SBs, though light fruit with a quick finish. Easy to drink and would have again. Now to finish so we can eat affogato and return to Josie before she dies of a heart attack (that old dog does *not* like change)

Excellent Sancerre. Citrus and stone fruit nose. White stone fruit, Meyer lemon, white flowers, very unripe papaya, orange and lemon zest, vanilla - followed by a touch of candied orange rind and then ripe melon on the finish. Chalky texture. Medium+ acidity. Everything in perfect harmony.

Sometimes a bottle is just so damn delicious you just don't want to think technically.

Absolutely solid, luscious Sancerre. No surprises, but sometimes that's exactly what you want. Masterfully created.

Excellent. Good acidity and a balanced citrus and grass flavor with lingering pepper on the palate.
