Michel Thomas & Fils Sancerre 2018 Review
This wine is a bit pricey for what it is. It’s not as laser focused as most wines from here, with more weight on the palate and lower acidity. There is a funkiness to the wine which may peak the interest of “natural wine” lovers, with some distinct yeasty notes. I am not sure if it is the best expression of wine from this region but it would be a good natty wine gift.
