From a cooler, northwest facing site that was planted by François's great-grandfather, brought up all in used demi-muids, the 2019 Sancerre Blanc Les Culs de Beaujeu offers a more musky, mineral-laced, earthy style that carries impressive lemon curd, white flowers, crushed rock, and green almond-like aromas and flavors. Beautifully balanced and focused on the palate, it stays more tight and reserved compared to the Grande Côte, but I just love its purity and precision. It's going to put on a touch of richness with a year in bottle and keep for 10-15 years.
