With its beautiful, luminous golden-yellow color, this Savennières is crystal-clear and refined on the nose, with subtle hints of light oak from its aging. The palate is full-bodied and elegant, thanks in part to lovely mineral notes. The finish is long and crisp, with citrus notes and a salty aftertaste. A great gastronomic white wine from the Loire!

Review by Mr. JEAN-CLAUDE G. Published on October 16, 2018
Very disappointing; it doesn't match the advertised and described wine at all. This has put me off buying Savennières again.
