After tasting about 100 tank samples of Sancerre on a French tasting trip? We came close to swearing off the whole appellation for good. Christian Thirot-Fournier however, restored our faith. Lime zest, wet stone, grapefruit, greenish scents… in short? Sancerre! This is a bottle that reminds us - at a close-to-Monday-night price, no less - why this little spot is worshipped for being the most exalted expression of Sauvignon Blanc in the world.
