Closel Les Caillardières 2019
White
Savennières, France
8.0
WineSaint
Dense and weighty, with serious mineral backbone driving through layers of citrus peel, wet stone and brioche. The palate shows remarkable power for the appellation, built on razor-sharp acidity that cuts through the wine's substantial frame. Formidable structure demands patience. This needs years to integrate and show its full range. Drink 2026-2035.
