$20
The 15th generation of the Clément family to farm in Menetou-Salon, just to the west of Sancerre, makes an elegant Sauvignon Blanc which in its youth shows signs of lees contact and a lightly nutty character over its green fruits. Drink within the next year.

An intensely grassy wine, with green fruit and herb flavors, structured and laced with yeast from the lees. It has a hard edge from its straight-laced structure; it needs food.
