Gérard Fiou Terroir de Silex Le Grand Roc Sancerre 2019

Tightly wound and subdued at first, this broods with zesty grapefruit and peach flavors that turn silky on the dense palate, with notes of sweet bay leaf and white pepper. Though supple and round, this is grounded by a firm mineral core and a quinine note on the very lengthy finish. A stunning Sancerre. Drink now through 2030. Score - 93.
