2017 La Clef du Récit Sancerre Rouge


Day X notes:

This wine needs more cellar time. Revisiting it I found it much more giving. The vegetal finish disappeared and was replaced by a brambly influence. Perhaps indicating some percentage of whole cluster in the wine with the stems being a bit on the green side at harvest. 
In any case, the fruit opens slightly and the finish short and ok... not objectionable as when tasted pop and pour. 


Day One notes:

Lightweight pinot noir with minimal fruit up front dissolving into an unsavory vegetal finish.
