Saumur Blanc, “Les Genêts”

This wine, coming from Les Genêts section of the Clos des Chaintres, offers an intriguing insight into the terroirs expression of this domaine. While perhaps less honeyed and floral than the Clos des Oratoriens bottling in some vintages, these Chenin vines give fruit dominated by aromas and flavors of quince, lanolin, and hay. Mineral rich and built with high acidity and dry extract, this wine will develop for years in the cellar.
