2*Coup de Coeur

Hachette

“Highly expressive, the nose captivates with its exuberant fruitiness (mango, lemon, grapefruit), enlivened by a delicate anise-like freshness. The palate, in perfect harmony, is concentrated, complex, and fresh, lingering into a long, briny finish.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019)

About the wine:

Highly expressive, the nose captivates with its exuberant fruitiness (mango, lemon, grapefruit), enlivened by a delicate anise-like freshness. The palate, in perfect harmony, is concentrated, complex, and fresh, lingering into a long, briny finish.

About the estate:

Based in Humbligny, young winemakers David Girard (who established his operation in 2003) and his brother Luc (2011) manage a 7-hectare vineyard that is currently undergoing development: new plantings, a new winery for vinification and aging, and the creation of a tasting room.

Out of two bottles, one was bland and the other had an incredibly corky taste—very disappointed

Review by Mr. FREDERIC B. Published on September 5, 2019

A magnificent Sauvignon with great balance and a lovely finish. Somewhere between the crispness of a Sancerre and the finesse of a Pouilly-Fumé... a wonderful discovery

Very short on the palate, and a lack of aroma that leaves one disappointed
