Sauvignon which expresses itself fully. Mango aromas on the nose. On the palate, the wine is full and round. The sweetness is balanced by a fine liveliness with exotic touches for a pleasantly acidic sensation. The wine oscillates between the fatness provided by the clay-limestone soils, the freshness, the fruitiness conferred by the "caillotes" and the flint that gives it minerality.
Pair with fish, seafood or goat cheese.

The 2021 Sancerre is deftly handled and highly attractive. Produced organically and wild fermented, the wine is precise, pure and elegant, with excellent line and length. While light in body, it offers tenderness on the mid-palate and balanced but uncompromisingly fresh acid. Ripe lemon and aromatic floral notes combine to make a pretty combination. A little more length would have elevated it even further, but based on this wine, I'll be paying the Fleuriet family a visit next time I'm in Sancerre.
