The 2022 Les Boucauds sashays around the mouth. It is rich and rounded possibly due to the deep clays on this clay limestone with a ripe almost tropical aromatic profile offering melon pear and pineapple alongside white flowers. A rather satisfying style that remains in barrel and will be blended in the summer of 2023. (Drink between 2023-2028)
vWine Advocate: 92 Points
Matured in barrel for 10 months the 2022 Sancerre Les Boucauds reveals a delicate pure bouquet of pear peach spring flowers spices and menthol followed by a moderately weighted textured and layered palate with bright acids a lively fleshy core of fruit and a long ethereal mineral-laced finish enhanced by a saline aftertaste. This is a gorgeous rendition of the eponymous parcel composed of clay limestone and marls. Published: Aug 15 2024
