Encore un autre tres beau chenin du domaine.
Par rapport au clos des papillons, Jalousie est encore plus dans l’opulence et l’intensité, en oubliant peut être la finesse et la verticalité? Un excès de jalousie peut être?

Drinking lean and pretty today. Not as complex as the last bottle but direct and pure pleasure. Very honeyed, pear and spice with hints of minerality. Yum yum yum yum yum.

Lacking a little acid on the finish, but I always enjoy Dom. du Closel. Wanted pickled okra with this.

Rich nose, a bit smoky at first. Good acidity, but I would swear this is a touch sweet.

This wine had both intensity and a feathery lightness-two intermingled qualities that make Savennieres such a singular and unique wine.

Love this amazing value Chenin Blanc. Crisp and full of flavor: green apple, lime zest, white flowers. Generous fruit but balanced with the bright acidity. I didn't want to share.

This is your summer white, come and get the Chenin! Lime citrus, chalk, stone minerality, great interplay of fruit and acidity, keeps you guessing which is more apparent.
