Just perfect Savennieres. Cream followed by lemon, in a totally balanced presentation. Just what Chenin Blanc should be.

Brown apple and pear, honey, some floral and mineral elements, good depth, rich and full.

No formal notes - WOTN for me. Closel I had had but Baumard takes the cake. Fabulous. Layers of flavour—stone, beautiful fruit, haunting wine.

Not boring. Good body and richness on the nose without weight. Delish

Electric, mineral-driven, full-bodied white wine. Lemon and lime zest. Green apple. Underripe pear. Nougat. White flowers - acacia? Austere; still very much in its youth. Would love to hang on to another bottle for 5-10 years at least. Paired wonderfully with walleye a la francaise and shaved asparagus salad.
