This afternoon our first wine is the 2015 Domaine de Baumard Savenniers. This Chenin Blanc is very well made and is a very easy drinker.

On the nose there is Apple, lemon/lime, peach, melon, mandarin orange and mineral notes.

On the palate there is yellow apple, pear, quince, lime, honey, lemon curd, a touch of oilyness and minerality.

This is a light bodied wine with medium + acidity with a long fresh finish. A beautiful Chenin Blanc with a touch of sweetness that is very easy to drink. Continued Happy Holidays and stay safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Delicious. Long finish and nice acidity. Stone fruit at first, then a nice honey flavor on the palette.

Nice! Very similar to previous note. A little more acidity and less butter/popcorn. Really good QPR.

Quite nice. Medium gold color. Medium plus depth. Lemongrass, butter, popcorn, and camomile. Great QPR and Wine Spectator recommendation.
