Saumur, Anjou-Saumur, Loire Valley, France
Has a chiseled and almost austere side with its high acid and reductive nerve, but the generous golden fruit on the palate and a hint of botrytis (to me) offer some openness and warm. Struck flint, golden orchard fruit, wool and ginger dominate. Subtle notes of leaves, white tea, and beautiful floral notes underneath. Pure, but still offering a nudge of Chenin funkiness.

Orchard fruit, canned pineapple, ginger, zippy acidity, kinda funky and minerally. Delicious!
