2020 Savennières AOC Gaudrets (Sec)

A closely knit series of plots located on the heights of the Savennières village, planted on sandy soils above black schist, "Les Gaudrets" embodies the terroir profile most commonly found in the appellation area. This cuvée expresses the freshness and the typical floral bouquet of Savennières wines.

Aromas of white flowers and white fruits open onto an enveloping roundness in the mouth from a year spent on the lees, carried by a fine acidity and a gentle, signature salinity. A “captivating nose with notes of pear, flowers and citrus.” Drink now or lay down for up to a decade. Best served at 10-12C.
