Description
Thierry Merlin-Cherrier has one huge quality advantage - his family's tiny domaine can be found in the fine cru of Bué, singled out by Sotheby's World Wine Encyclopaedia for "the very best Sancerres of the entire appellation". And Thierry is "one of the unsung stars of Bué" according to Robert Parker, who is a big fan of this estate.
Every vintage stands out but the 2006 boasts an extra, mouthwatering richness - "Sancerre had a terrific 2006 … the previous year was very good, but the 2006s have the edge" (Joanna Simon, The Times)
Intensely perfumed with tantalising citrus and mineral notes, which continue on the palate. Brimful of fresh citrus and pear flavours … luxurious, long, tangy finish.
