Chateau d'Epire Savennieres Moelleux, Loire, France 2019 Chicken and Turkey the Chateau Latour-Martillac Blanc 2018Chteau dpirs Savennires. Rather than make things overripe and blowsy, as one might fear, the sunny conditions have instead intensified the trademark character of Chenin Blanc from these schist laden vineyards overlooking the Loire. A discreet nose of fresh walnuts prefaces this white wine flavored more of fractured stone than of any fruit or flower. The finish is bone dry and utterly mouthwatering, as with any self respecting Savennires.
