Domaine PetitJean – Sauvignon Gris 2018 – Saint-Bris

The nose is fruity, well-built and offers precision as well as a very fine power. It reveals notes of lychee, sugared pink grapefruit, small notes of fleshy/ripe kumquat associated with fine touches of mandarine flowers, a very discreet hint of apple and an imperceptible hint of spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a juicy/finely acidulous frame, gourmandize, sapidity as well as a racy minerality, precision and a fine tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy lychee, sugared mild tobacco, fleshy/juicy kumquat associated with small touches of lemon flowers, lemon, quenette as well as discreet hints of elderflower/exotic fruits. Good length. An imperceptible almost tannic hint and vanilla on the finish/persistence.
