The 2020 Savennieres provides delicious purity of Chenin Blanc fruit. It blossoms in the mouth, expanding and filling with a creaminess and ripeness that fleshes it out. There are some early signs of development- a note of almond and a hint of lanolin emerging alongside the pure apple fruit. It's a rather charming Savennieres with schist bedrock lending fine structure.

This savory, mineral-driven white is defined by lemon and crisp apple notes layered with elements of smoke, gunflint and crushed stone. Offers steely acidity and real structure, with an upright spine and grip guiding the firm finish, which lingers, with hints of dried green herbs.
