    Millet's Bué vines are in one of the classic chalk terroirs of Sancerre, and this wine revels in the richness of the fruit and brightness of the acidity. It does have some grassy herbaceousness, although this is broadened by the warm fruitiness. Drink now.

    This firm Pinot Noir has made subtle use of wood aging to round out and become rich. Red cherry fruits fill the mouth with soft tannins and toasty spice giving some complexity. The wine could age, although it is ready to drink now.
