A bit broader and flatter than my ideal, a bit disappointing but from 2009 should expect that I suppose.

Very light - not too much funk - but delicious

This has continued to age effortlessly, effectively “dry” Chenin Blanc, finished in screwcap, at age 17, neither the color, aromatics or palate impression suggest anything older than 7-10 years, should continue to age well!!

Crisp, super clean and refreshing, dry Chenin Blanc, looks and tastes like a 5-year-old Loire, relatively rich as well, this is (I think?) Baumard’s entry-level Savennieres, and this vintage is quite outstanding!!
