2018 Savennieres La Roche aux Maines Chateau de Chamboureau - Fournier Longc Montalcino darkly concentrated fruit and lotsSuckling: 95 Very intense, sliced pear nose that needs some time to reveal the lemon zest and floral notes. This is a powerhouse dry chenin blanc that edges towards opulence, but has almost razor sharp acidity that keeps it tightly in check. Then comes the complex spice and minerality of the bold yet super clean finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
