Domaine Pelle Menetou-Salon les Blanchais 2017

May as well be the best vintage of this outstanding value that memory recalls. Delicious golden apples, lemon verbena and steely minerals lead on the pristine, crystalline nose. Powered by lime, nectarine and pear along with an intensely mineral texture and supreme concentration, the fresh cut fruits and essence of rocks incise through the laser... Read Full Review →

Henri Bourgeois Sancerre D’Antan 2022

Precise and elegant from start to finish with pretty floral aromas and ripe citrus on the nose. Racy on the palate with abundant ripe citrus and trademark Silex minerality and dried herbs.

Hensel West Sauvignon Blanc Riverbound 2024

Clean, crisp, and utterly refreshing. Bursting with vibrant notes of kiwi, honeydew melon, and ripe papaya, this wine balances its tropical exuberance with a zesty core of lemon and grapefruit.

A razor-sharp expression of Sauvignon Blanc, this vibrant white crackles with electric tension from the first sip. Pure and unadorned, it races across the palate with piercing notes of lime, tart apple, and grapefruit zest, underpinned by a steely mineral backbone and a whisper of chalk. Hints of musky melon, floral mint, and crushed herbs... Read Full Review →

Quintessa Sauvignon Blanc Illumination 2024

A superbly refreshing expression with vibrant energy. Zingy grapefruit, lime, and gooseberry leap from the glass, joined by juicy notes of melon and kiwi. The palate balances density with lift and the lush tropical ripeness is balanced a lively herbaceous streak. Rounded yet vibrant, it glides into a tangy, sultry finish that lingers with citrus...
