Dom. de Chevilly Quincy '15
France, Quincy, Loire
Sauvignon Blanc
$18ish
Poundability: 3/5
Value: 3.5/5
Overall: 3.5/5
Pale yellow color with a honey nose. Light bodied.
Flavors of honey, butter but not in that Cali chard' oak bomb way. Light mineral/stone with a hint of grass - but not in a New Zealandy way. Light lemon/lime, pear and tropical fruit notes.
Great acidity - lives up to Loire valleys "vibrant acidity" reputation that I've read about. Awesome complexity with a very long finish. Crisp. Due to the high acidity (not a knock), brings down poundability but still a great wine. Would repeat.
Picture pending
