UPC code: 7 84585 00373 0
2009 Domaine Michel Thomas, Sancerre, Blanc 12/750ml
A selected
blend of 40% Caillottes, 40% Grosses Terres, 20% Silex, the wine displays an exotic nose
with a touch of smoke and licorice. On the palate, peach and watermelon
dominate with citrus zest and chalk notes.
"Very
juicy, with a delicious core of lemon verbena and straw laced
with hints of nectarine, white peach and mineral. The finish is
long and fresh. Delicious. Drink now."

2008 Domaine Michel Thomas, Sancerre, Blanc 12/750ml
A selected
blend of 40% Caillottes, 40% Grosses Terres, 20% Silex, the wine displays an exotic nose
with a touch of smoke and licorice. On the palate, peach and watermelon
dominate with citrus zest and chalk notes.
"Light
gold. Green apple and lemon on the nose, with talc and quinine
adding complexity. Dry, tightly wound citrus flavors become
juicier with air and pick up a sweet honeydew quality. The
finish repeats the lemon note and lingers with good spicy
persistence. This youthful wine will probably be even better
with a year of bottle age under its belt."

International Wine Cellar (March/April 10), 88 pts
"Michel
Thomas’ Sancerre is medium yellow straw with leesy and mineral
aromas and a touch of lime. It has a dry creamy palate with a
lemon cream citrus and flint character and high acidity. The
finish is also long with lingering lemon and lime citrus
flavors."

UPC code: 7 84585 00667 0
2009 Domaine Michel Thomas, Sancerre, Blanc, Silex 12/750ml
Intensely
aromatic and concentrated Sauvignon from the Silex soils,
this is a
wine of great concentration and excellent balance.
Aromas of fresh herbs, with flavors of
citrus, ripe gooseberry, apple and a hint of gunflint. A
delicious apéritif and the classic match for goat cheese or
asparagus.
"This delicious white really
crackles, with lots of gooseberry and citrus peel notes backed
by hints of lime and flint. The long, mouthwatering finish is
very vibrant, with plenty of zip. Drink now through 2012. 700
cases made. –JM"

"Fresh,
with inviting plantain and gooseberry notes backed by a nervy,
flint- and chive-filled finish that really stretches out nicely.
Racy and vibrant, with excellent minerality underneath. Drink
now."

2007 Domaine Michel Thomas, Sancerre, Blanc, Silex 12/750ml
"Light
yellow. Pungent, mineral-driven aromas of apple, melon and
herbs. Sweeter pit fruit nectar and honey on the palate, with a
touch of white pepper adding cut. Smoothly blends nerviness and
richness, with good finishing cut and a lingering melon note."

2006 Domaine Michel Thomas, Sancerre, Blanc, Silex
"Light
gold. An expressive bouquet displays candied lemon, pear skin,
jasmine, ginger and a subtle leesiness. Juicy, penetrating
citrus and mineral flavors are given depth by juicy orchard
fruits and pick up a hint of bitter quinine with air. Already
complex and ready to drink, finishing with good punch and
lingering notes of spices and bitter citrus zest."
