Domaine des Baumard Savennières 2017 (90 JD)
“The base 2017 Savennières from Baumard is outstanding, offering pretty notes of golden apples, pears, hazelnuts, wet stones, and a touch of brioche. Nicely textured, medium-bodied, and beautifully balanced on the palate, it has a remarkable sense of purity and precision and is a joy to drink. Despite the upfront appeal, I suspect it will evolve for a solid decade in cold cellars.”
