My first. Situated in the big bend, next to Quincy and M-Salon this is 100% SB. The combo of temperatures and soil send this in the direction of a white Graves.
Needs to be in double figs c, as colder it is acidic and tasteless. Vibrant spring aromas of new blossom (sorrrry) with tastes of grapefruit when warmer, and hints of woody brambley things. Perhaps nearing it's end and now off the website. I reckon this would have been very nice a year ago.

Thanks for posting this, Ba. It was on my list of wines to try. To be honest i've pretty much given up on Reuilly and Quincy as I find them aggressively tart and not very aromatic at all. Menetou Salon on the other hand can come pretty close to matching Sancerre and PF although the Marney MS at Maj is not a great example. The wines of Henry Pelle are always good but as pricey as Sancerre now.
