Les Monts Damnés Sancerre, 2017

 

Sancerre

€98.50

750ml Bottle

Very fresh and vibrant example if this beautiful Sancerre.The bouquet is deep, very complex and absolutely superb, as it soars from the glass in a blaze of green apple, oranges, fresh-cut grass, beautifully complex, chalky minerality, lime zest and spring flowers in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and absolutely refined, with great mid-palate depth, crisp acids and brilliant lightness of step on the very, very long, intense and snappy finish. A brilliant high wire act that should drink magically for at least the next two decades.
