Sauve Blanc from Quincy in Loire Valley. Deep gold color hinting oak aging, fun mango and peach nose, 13% alcohol so beware. What a lighter body fun wine... such nice fruit throughout to balance the strong alcohol!!
Wine Bible by Karen McNeil, “Quincy and Reuilly are two tiny appellations near the river Cher, a tributary of the Loire. Again, the sauvignons can be quite crisp and delicious”.

Nose has freshly mowed field, spring rain, light salinity, grapefruit peel and white florals.
Palate has refreshing tart (medium) lemon/grapefruit blend, wet grassy notes and great Kimmeridgian core.
Great QPR, Quincy is a wonderful alternative to Sancerre, and well worth a market search. A lightly imported AOC, but also be on the lookout for Menetou-Salon and Reuilly, which neighbor Quincy to the East and West, respectively. — 7 years ago

It was served a bit too cold, but as it has warmed up, it has opened up and it's quite nice. A touch of earthiness, but also a bit of brightness. — 10 years ago
