Love your article and esp your SB commentary. I’m with you! I recently had some SB from some special sites in Touraine (Chenonceaux- Domaine de la Chaise and Oisly- Domaine de Marcé), and I loved them. (It was a GuildSomm event on wines of the Loire). I am going to see if a wine buyer friend can bring them in- they weren’t as minerally as Sancerre but gorgeous fruit and restrained green/herbal notes. Worth seeking out if you have a chance to try!

Thank you! Touraine definitely has some beautiful SBs. I’ll look out for those for sure. Cheers!!
