These are singing at the moment. Such a typical chenin-power, but bonedry. A real chameleon with food. Plus some nice waxy & zippy chenin aging tones on top of it. Brilliant for the money it will cost you!

2001 Saumur White #chenin. Deep gold with a slightly browning rim. Quince, yellow apples, ozone, penetrating mineral aromas. Holding but no room for improvement.
