Clos David Saumur Blanc Chenin Blanc

The right wine at the right time

Wow. Showing some rounder fruits on the nose, but the pallet is as fresh as ever! Can still lay down for years to come

Drinking great. The cut is still there but the texture is great and fruit much more complex.

Delicious bright salinity with marvelous texture and elegance...notes of citrus blossoms, Meyer lemon, limestone

⚡️⚡️⚡️ white tea, pear, lemon/grapefruit, stones. Laser beam down the palate, racy and tense, unyielding since LBT. Day: 2 there we go, better development of fruit, lime blossom, honey, more length.

Great purity here. Intensity of stone fruit was on there on the front and mid. Back end has serious acid. I like the juxtaposition. So is Chenin from a great producer like this.

Believe the hype on this one. Amazing Chenin this was the 2012

Clean and crisp chenin from a great producer

Reminiscent of white Burgundy in its precision and breadth. Leads you into thinking it will be over the top with the lush heady and tropical notes. Subtle oak that I love on Chenin that bring out almost a lemon curd/toasty note. Palate is bursting with acid, much more citrus, quince, pear, and crushed rock on the palate with a lingering finish. This is very complex, wound, and offers a little something different with every sip. Arguably one of the best CB I've had.

Lightning in a bottle. Needs to rest for the loooong haul
