($20, Michael Skurnik Wines): Although a less well-known Loire appellation, Quincy wines are popular around Boston because of the suburb of the same name (but a different pronunciation (the wine is pronounced, “cahn-see”). This is a lively and intense expression of crisp and slightly earthy Sauvignon Blanc with a captivating floral component. Wonderful length and balance makes it hard to resist. It’s more evidence than the 2009 vintage was superb in the Loire. 90 Michael Apstein Dec 28, 2010
