Domaine des Baumard Savennières 2022

There's a briny richness to this savory white, offering notes of smoke, green herbs and crisp Granny Smith apple layered with ground ginger and cinnamon. Silky in feel, with chiseled firmness on the savory finish, where gunpowder and fresh hay hints echo. Drink now through 2032. 800 cases imported.

This bottling offers a good representation of what dry Chenin Blanc can do in your glass. Wet stone and sunset-kissed orchard fruit fill the nose of the wine including dried-red-apple slice, orange zest, quince and lilac blossom. The palate is round with mineral-driven elements that surface throughout the length of the taste that finishes with hints of bread dough.
