This bottle makes me think that '23 was a very good year for the Loire. The aromas are overflowing from the glass as soon as it's being poured. There are so many interesting fruit notes in this Sauv Blanc that I would swear it must be a field blend with some Chenin Blanc or Marsanne.
A great wine for those of us who enjoy the olfactory orgasm.
