My instinctive response, too.
If you wanted to go outside Loire, how about Austria? Lots of good SB in Styria (I like a producer named Sabathi), plus some in other regions.
Smith Haut Lafitte is a good choice, at least 85-90% SB. Carbonnieux, DDC, etc are at least mostly SB.

Depends how you define serious. Does it apply to price or an exploration of styles?

Dale Williams wrote:Probably even harder to find, but there's a small production SB from CA called Courier that I served blind in a flight with a Pur Sang - it held its own quite well (there was also a Laville Haut Brion, eclipsed by both, a '96 showing quite advanced). The winemaker is actually the chef at the new Bay hotspot RN74.
