Tasting Notes:
Grown on the appellation's flint (silex) soils, giving this Sancerre its signature smoky, gunflint minerality alongside racy citrus and grapefruit notes. Vibrant, precise acidity with a long, stony finish — a more mineral, less overtly fruity expression than Sancerre grown on limestone.
