(2024) Pinot Noir from clay and limestone soils in Sancerre, 20% if the blend aged in oak barrels. Pale cherry coolour. Very fragrant, with lovely summer pudding and floral notes sitting on top of a stony, mineral character, some truffle and cedar in the background. In the mouth dry and savoury, but with a lovely quality of cranberry and redcurrant fruit that is lean without being at all mean, the oak providing a little rounding texture and creamy flavour, fine, sandy tannins and very good acidity completing a very satisfying picture. Note: price is for a half bottle, as bottles of this vintage are sold out at time of review.
