Sancerre “Madeleine” 2018, Paul Cherrier, Loire, France

The sounds here are perched so high that they give the impression of a hummingbird swaying you with its piccolo until your eardrums burst. Beyond the image, a great dry white from the terroir, both wildly aromatic (peach, lemon, verbena), ample and persistent under its deep, powerful sap and long finish. (5+)
