The 2018 Sancerre blanc Le Grand Roc" Terroir de Silex opens with a clear and discreet yet actually intense and substantial nose of ripe, white fruits, blackcurrant, lush peaches, white blossoms, brioche and iodine. Full-bodied, fresh and with mineral vitality on the palate, this is an intense, mouth-filling and sustainable Sancerre that indicates well-dosed oak management and an excellent silex terroir. The wine is powerful and complex and reveals a seriously firm structure with stimulating phenolics. The 2018 still appears as a young and vivacious, stimulating Sancerre, and it's less massive or rich than so many of its peers. This is an excellent wine indeed." - Wine Advocate
