Claude Riffault, "Les Denisottes," Sancerre, France, Sauvignon Blanc, 2023 Citrus Distillery: Bodegas Gerardo Mendez WineryA more round and rich style of Sancerre coming from the Terres Blanches. Longer aging in barrel creates a much softer palate. The wines are precise and mineral driven with the intent to age. Enjoy with frise with warm goat cheese or snapper with braised fennel.
