Claude Riffault Les Chailloux Sancerre 2014 

Light and bright gold color. Deep nose of lemon, peachescrushed rocks and a pretty saltiness. On the palate there is that round and almost fat mouthfeel, there is also acidity, salty and sea shell notes, then lemon, lime and peach flavors. Might feel a little rich, but this is so elegant with a long lasting finish that it can just be good! Excellent (91)

Made of sauvignon blanc from 13 to 40 years old vines. Aged in oak barrels for less than a year. Alcohol level of 13%

Got this wine through private import, but some of his wines are now available in SAQ stores.

Beautiful golden color. Complex nose of citrus fruits, ripe fruits, flowers, salty notes and fine oak aromas. Followed flavors of fresh pineapple, citrus fruit and minerality shows again, but what impresses me the most is the texture of the wine. There is a round and fat mouthfeel, but finesse, there is acidity, but it doesn’t hide the richness of it while being remarkably balanced. Excellent+ (92) 

Made of Chardonnay from 40+ years old vines. Aged in oak barrels with 20% being new. Alcohol level of 13,5%

Ruby color. Fresh nose with fiels straberries, herbs and strawberry tips. Bright and mouth watering acidity on the palatewith flavors of red fruits, earth and spices. Became even better at the table and would be an excellent choice to pair with heavier dishes as its acidity would bring freshness to the plate, making the wine shine even more. Still pretty young, will be better after 2-3 years of cellaring. Good+ (88)

Slightly gold color. This wine shows aromas of poached pear, spices and quite present oak. Round mouth with tropical fruit, grilled nuts and smoke. Long and tasty finish, balanced even if feels quite “powerful” for a white wine and the good presence of oak that tends to tone down with air. Still young, but very good! Alcohol level of 13,5%. Very good+ (90)

Made of Chardonnay. Aged 15 to 18 months in oak barrels, 20% being new. Alcohol kevel of 13,5%
