Lucien Crochet Sancerre Le Chene Marchand 2022

Bright golden yellow. Aromas of acacia flowers and almond paste, then slightly spicy when oxygenated with a hint of white pepper and ginger bread. Persistent chalky notes in the finish mingle with candied orange peel. Rich and round mouthfeel with flavors of chestnut cream and mirabelle plum. Nice balance slightly sweet but enhanced by delicate bitterness carrying to a mineral finish. Pair with sea food poached in Thaï-style broth, noble fish like turbot, John Dory, monkfish and sea bass.
