Henri Bourgeois 2010 La Chapelle des Augustins (Sancerre)

Country: France / La Chapelle des Augustins
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc Loire Valley
Winery: Henri Bourgeois / Sancerre

The flint and sand soil of this vineyard brings out the minerally, steely character of this taut, tight wine. While it is herbaceous and flavors of pineapple and white fruit, the structure dominates. Give this impressive wine another year or two.
