Domaine Guiberteau
Saumur Chenin Blanc
Saumur, Anjou-Saumur, Loire Valley, France
Delicious “basic” chenin bottling, refreshing and crisp, green apple and lemon with medium weight and some mineral accents. Very pleased and glad we didn’t go for a higher end choice only to be served out of plastic cups ;)

Absolutely stunning. This release/vintage has a lot of life left in it. I cannot wait to drink my other cellared bottle in ten years. Fresh yellow and white orchard fruits, young creamy Brie cheese, multiple layers of texture and minerality. I will literally FIGHT to continue buying upcoming vintages of Romain Guiberteau’s releases, with avid search for his small release Cabernet francs from Saumur; even Grolleaus, with fingers crossed that they will stay so affordable. Wait and see, his release prices are going to quickly climb in the coming years.
