Cave De Saumur

Château de Brézé

Clos du Midi Saumur Chenin Blanc 2020

Aged 50% in stainless steel and 50% in old Burgundian barrels. Pale lemon with aromas of citrus, stone fruits and herb notes. On the palate flavors of green apple, pear and lime citrus with notes of pepper and herb spice. Medium+ finish, chalky, vivid acidity and ends with mineral spice. Nice! — 9 days ago

Clos de la Coulée de Serrant Savennières Chenin Blanc 1999

Chilled and opened about an hour before dinner and allowed to gently come to temp. Served alongside charcoal grilled Thai sausage, sticky rice, coconut Thai curry, herb salad, shallot, lime, garlic, chiles. Tonight, this bottle was nothing short of remarkable. A deep golden color with gorgeous notes of squishy tropical fruit, white flowers, and turmeric. Wooly and waxy with acid for dayzzz. Stunning now but this bottle would show well through 2029 without breaking a sweat. — 3 days ago

Clos Romans Saumur Chenin Blanc 2009

If you ever thought how can a cremant made from Chenin Blanc have the acidity and subtle fruit make a wonderful sparkler. Try this one on. I loved how clean and crisp this came across. — 2 months ago

I prefer reds over whites, but this chardonnay is very creamy and smooth. Well balanced and refreshing. — a month ago

Domaine des Baumard

Savennières Chenin Blanc 2009

Crisp, super clean and refreshing, dry Chenin Blanc, looks and tastes like a 5-year-old Loire, relatively rich as well, this is (I think?) Baumard’s entry-level Savennieres, and this vintage is quite outstanding!! — 14 days ago
