Nutty and oxidative, lively. Like a fine sherry. — 2 years ago
Interesting cross-section...partial malo, quite dry, layered aging and relatively boozy. To put in context - this feels a world away from Vouvray. — 6 years ago
I seem to love all Savenierres, a fine example. — 2 months ago
What a great find, plenty of character, weight and acidity to work all the way thru our meal. Will seek this one out again. — 3 months ago
Nose is bright cherry, lavender, strawberry, raspberry, and rose. Smooth cherry and ripe strawberry predominate the palate along with cinnamon, tart peach, and ripe apricot. Light tannin, medium alcohol, and high acid that lingers long into the finish. — 3 years ago
Spot on in the blind. Well nearly. Was pretty adamant that it was a Vouvray. Just felt too fresh, crisp, and floral for a Savennières. Also lacking the typical Savennières hay-like character. Makes more sense once you find out that this wine comes from the highest point in the appellation. Wine-wise, it felt pretty quiet compared to the others on the table but I loved the energy. Taut, with a very distintive Chenin-acidity. Notes of lemon rind, pear, white flowers, and hints of lanolin. Quite an airy wine. One to revisit too. — 3 months ago
Fun, fresh, juicy. Fruit forward with loads of cherry and cranberry, earth, and a hint of capsicum. Cab Franc and Grolleau. Great with a slight chill. — 2 years ago
