Place: Saumur, Loire Valley
🇫🇷
Vigneron: Domaine Armand Lambert, Chateau Brézé, Clos de la Rue parcel
-
Grape: Chenin Blanc; Vintage: 2014
-
Color: Medium yellow and silver around the rim.
-
Nose: Not floral, pear/apple fruit and tea aromas
🥂
Taste: Slightly muted acidity probably because of age. Yellow apple, but unripe mango acidity. Earthy minerality, rich and balanced.
