2018 Remi Jobard - Bourgogne Blanc Cote D'Or V.V.

2018 Domaine des Pasquiers - Gigondas

2019 Mellot, Alphonse - Sancerre La Moussiere

The 2019 Sancerre La Moussi?re is quite rich, ripe and intense on the yeasty nose that represents a coolish, calcareous marl terroir with really old vines (roughly 60 years old). The fruit is reminiscent of ripe, yellow apples with just a discreet tone of gooseberries. Rich and intense on the palate, this is a powerful and, for now, quite creamy-textured Sancerre that lacks a bit of esprit, freshness and tension. The wine reveals fine tannins instead and might develop well over the years in the bottle but is definitely from a warmer, sunnier vintage. 14% alcohol. Tasted in November 2020.
