WineSaint
Mineral-driven and uncompromising, with crystalline acidity that cuts through layers of citrus peel, wet stone and dried herbs. The palate shows classic Savennières austerity. Lean yet concentrated, with a chalky texture that speaks to the schist soils. Built for the long haul; needs several more years to soften and integrate.
