Default TN: Wrong Sancerre, right match

Lovely night on the patio, perfect spring day, with a asparagus/pea
risotto with gremolata and a salad of cucumber, canteloupe, and lime.
Cooking and drinking wine was the 2005*Daniel*Crochet*Sancerre. As
previously noted, a mistake purchase, I thought I getting Lucien
Crochet. As mistakes go, this turned out ok. Good typicity, ripe but
with solid acids. Grapefruit, gooseberry, and a little grass. Flinty
mineral edge on finish. Not something to seek out, but niceSancerre
that went well with the food.
B

Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent
wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't
drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no
promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.
