Famille Joly Savennieres Les Vieux Clos 2021
Chenin Blanc from Anjou, Loire, France
Winemaker Notes
Golden yellow wines, the nose is bright and complex. Pear, golden apple, and almond on the palate, this wine shows the concentration of the 2021 vintage, with a thrilling tension bringing the finish to great length.
Wine Spectator – 90 Points
Shows soft, supple chamomile and baked apple notes framed by pleasantly bitter tannins. A distinctive, earthy white, showing some evolution, with ground ginger, warm hay and spices infusing the broad palate, while citrusy acidity balances the medium-body profile. Reveals salted brioche at the close.
Food Pairing
Pairs well with roasted poultry and creamy seafood pasta.
