Comte Lafond Sancerre (Sauvignon Blanc)

Sancerre, Upper Loire, France

Pale golden-green, remarkable and aromatic intensity on the nose.  Floral notes of white flowers such as hawthorn, acacia, eglantine and elderflower.  This is backed up by blackcurrant buds and wildflowers.  It is lively on the palette, with very pleasant acidulous characteristics prolonged by light fruity notes.
