Alphonse Mellot Sancerre La Moussière HALF 2020

Alphonse Mellot Sancerre La Moussière HALF 2020

Sauvignon Blanc | Sancerre, France

There’s Sauvignon and then there is Sauvignon from Sancerre. There’s Sancerre and then there is Dagenau. Then a pack chasing him. Mellot right at the front of that pack. Beautiful poise, delicacy and vertical long shape to the palate. Lovely bright fruit that has shifted beyond primary to aromas and flavours of intrigue. Crisp fine acid. This is an impressive drink. There’s a little passion fruit and gooseberry if you look for it. Overall it’s just a wonderful seemless Sauvignon Blanc.

Giuseppe Quintarelli 'Bianco Secco' 2022
Wonderfully floral, the 2022 Bianco Secco entices with a spicy blend of pine resin and ground ginger, complicating hints of nectarine and dusty florals. This is energetic in style, with a solid core of minerality contrasting a mix of tropical citrus and white pit-fruits. Zesty acidity maintains a lovely freshness as the 2022 finishes crisp and clean, with a sapid, lemony concentration that calls the taster back to the glass. The Bianco Secco is a blend of Garganega, Trebbiano, Chardonnay, Sauvig

Alphonse Mellot Sancerre Satellite 2020

Alphonse Mellot Sancerre Satellite 2020

Sauvignon Blanc | Sancerre, Centre Loire

The Satellite comes from vines in Chavignol that are spread of five separate parcels, including the reverred terroirs Le Cul de Beaujeu and Les Monts-Damnés. The low cropping Sauvignon Blanc vines here are between 40 and 80 years old. The juice was naturally fermented and raised in large, mature oak barrels and bottled without filtration. The resulting wine harnesses both the famed texture and natural chalky electricity of the slopes of Chavignol, offering intensity, precision, elegance and

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Pur Sang VDF 2022

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Pur Sang VDF 2022

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

“The 2022 Pur Sang is done in a really sophisticated style. Despite its long élevage, it needs a little more time for its oak (demi-muids and cigar-shaped barrels) to integrate fully and for its sense of strictness to mellow. But this isn't a wine you'd crack open on release anyway. It is pure and clear, with fine texture and a tenderness to its core. The 2022 shows fine lines and length, with tangy green flavors like cornichons and dill meeting green orange on the finish.”Rebecca Gibb

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Buisson Renard Blanc VDF 2022

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Buisson Renard Blanc VDF 2022

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

“I’m a bit of a fan of the Buisson Renard. At the bottom of the hill below the winery in the village of Saint-Andelain, there's a greater proportion of clay to flint, giving a broadness to the wine's shape that envelops the whole mouth. In 2022, you can smell the warmth of the vintage and experience its richness and yet its sense of lightness. There's an appealing chew to the wine, and on the finish, a salty residue that makes you want to continue drinking. It retains acidity, line and lengt

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Blanc Fumé de Pouilly 2016

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Blanc Fumé de Pouilly 2016

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, France

The first bottle of Didier's wines I devoured was a bottle of Silex in 2001 with Doc when I was working with him at Yarra Yering. We were looking to benchmark for the Dry White No.1, a Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc blend. It was included in a bracket with some exceptional white Bordeaux. Prior Didier's wine I had not been impressed by the Pouilly-Fumé I had tasted, most of it green, weedy, cats piss. Silex was a breath of fresh air.Jefford's commentary sums it up beautifully. “His wines smel

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Silex VDF 2022

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

“The 2022 Silex is not a lot of fun upon release; dry and tense, it really needs time to mellow. There's flesh from the clay element of its clay-flint soils, which is felt on entry but tightens up as it moves through the mouth. This remains a wine of drive, firmness and upright structure; it speaks of the place it comes from rather than its variety. Aromatics are almost a forgotten element; this is a wine about structure and texture. There is a lemony, wild goat cheese-like note and a distinct

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Sancerre 'Le Mont Damné' MAGNUM 2022

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Sancerre ‘Le Mont Damné’ MAGNUM 2022

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

“When you taste at Dagueneau, Le Mont Damné comes along at the end of a line-up of Pouilly Fumés and seems to be oh-so-tender, caressing the palate with its gentle, fine, chalky texture. A sophisticated yet quiet style, this 0.6ha parcel on the mid-slope of this famous Sancerre vineyard was planted back in 2002. While a little closed at this stage, pretty aromas are just itching to blossom, and they are reminiscent of elderflower, ripe apple, honeysuckle and an almost exotic note. There's al
