Solid. Just not typical, Ganevat compelling.

This is very good wine but I'm not sure I think Savagnin really wants to be blended with Chardonnay.

Ganevat whites are where it's at. Vines from 1902.

2009 Cuvée de Garde. 50% Chardonnay, 50% Savagnin Sous Voille for four years or more. I'm speechless. Up there with the best Sous Voile wines I've ever had. Cured leather, a touch of exotic spices, and such depth. Lingers on the palate for days.

Oxidative funk and beautiful acid. Accompanied by some mushroom risotto.

Oxidation but but within my range of fairness. A saline flavor was the more prominent characteristic of this wine. Very nicely balanced.
