Elegant Savennieres that has already seemed to shed its baby fat and pierced the palate with candle wax, apple preserves, and melon.

Grand cru white burgundy nose of Chenin. Heaven. Literally heaven. Flowers. Air. Minerals galore. Citrus oil. Like a rock quarry. The fruit in this candy lemon lime slices with sugar on hem. Like a drop of lemon and lime. So vivid. So deep and airy like an ocean mist of Chenin. Insane. Palate is balanced like nothing I’ve had in Savennieres. Massive and concentrated with piercing minerality. Stunning purity. Just insane. It’s so clean and so racy and so precise it seems cut like a diamond. Amazing length. What clarity. What a wine. This is a thrill now but demands and needs age. Stunning. Tangy citrus shows up what seems Ike minutes after it’s done.

Crystalline, electric, tension. So seductive on the nose. So energetic on the palate. Backbreaking acidity, ripping across your teeth in the most pleasant way. Ginger, apple, lemon and orange, river stones and citrus blossoms, white tea, salt. This will only improve.

This is my Chenin jam. Sappy honeyed orchard fruit dusted with crystalline ginger, polished minerality and acid dialed up to 12, maybe 13. Pure energy. Drills deep into my wine pleasure center with laser focused intent and no remorse. Goodness, it's young young young too.
