2009 Sancerre, François Crochet


2009 Sancerre, François Crochet

I have already posted about the 2009 Sancerre from François Crochet – it was one of my top white Sancerres from the tasting at the Bureau du Centre in early June. See here. We drank a bottle of it with friends in Pauillac on Friday night and again it showed brilliantly. It is always impressive when people recognise how good a wine is spontaneously without any prompting at all. This was the case with François' 2009 Sancerre – lovely mineral character and precision of fruit.
