Gilbert 2007 Menetou-Salon Blanc (Loire) – Basic, wide brushstrokes of sauvignon blanc, with a wet iron tinge that is (for me) an occasional signature of the appellation. A little short, and filed-down elsewhere along its path, this is more or less or OK. (6/11)

Cris de coeur
Pellé 1997 Menetou-Salon Morogues Les Cris (Loire) – 1.5 L. Beet, spiced fennel seed, and a lot of incoherent treble screeching. Drink a few years ago. (2/08)

Pellé 2005 Menetou-Salon Morogues Blanc (Loire) – An excellent melding of bright, cold fruit and high-minded greenness, sharp, clean, and intense. Really, really good, if fairly direct. (2/08)
