As if carved from the stones themselves, this is a profound, structured white wine with intense depth of creamy, silk-lined citrus and white peach underscored by savoury, earth flavours of aniseed, menthol, liquorice and spices. It has layers, aromatic complexity, grip, precision, profound minerality and striking length. These wines can live 20 to 30 years easily and typically only start to peak after five to 10 years. Once again, each sip extends the boundaries of what we understand Sauvignon (and Sancerre) to be capable of. Give it at least a couple more years if you can.
