Paul Prieur et Fils, Sancerre La Pitaude 2023 750ML giftbox This is a stunningly good

This is a stunningly good Chevy built to reward extended keeping yet there is enough mid-palate sap to permit mid-term approachability

it's seamless and exquisitely balanced

there is excellent verve and freshness to the medium weight flavors that coat the mouth with dry extract on the velvet-textured mid-palate that flashes focused power on the youthfully austere

Very deep garnet-purple colored

salivating finish

Paul Prieur et Fils, Sancerre La Pitaude 2023 750ML giftbox This is a stunningly goodThe 2022 vintage marks the estates first officially certified organic release. The 2023 La Pitaude hails from a steep vineyard affected by fanleaf, which led to tiny berries and just 15 hl ha. It is intense and almost spicy, with savory and ripe cooked lemon notes, with a touch of bitterness from the small berries. Theres a good fierceness here and a serious, firm style. The 2023 is distinctive and idiosyncratic.
