"Named after the fossils that make up much of the soil in Sancerre and its surroundings, this wine is rich and velvety, with hints of toast from oak aging. A well-integrated acidity adds a bright touch to the ripe white fruit. A beautifully balanced wine, best enjoyed starting in 2021." (Wine Enthusiast)
