Note di degustazione
The 2019 Savennières Clos du Papillon is a satisfying, full-bodied expression, like an umbrella that's fully open. It's a naked wine with no oak, allowing the purity of fruit and the site to exhibit their potential. Round and supple with an element of creamy texture on the mid-palate, it reveals a counterbalancing fine clasp of grip, like a climber with an assured handhold on a difficult rock wall. The mouth is coated in a fine texture that you can gently lick at on the long finish. A little bottle age allowed this to come around. It’s drinking delightfully now.

The 2019 Savennieres Clos du Papillon exhales a shy and closed bouquet with aromas of lemon, spring flowers and ripe orchard fruits. Medium to full-bodied, rich and satiny, it has a delicate core of fruit with a phenolic, slightly bitter aftertaste. It can be drinking anytime over the next decade. Bottled with a screw-cap closure.
I love the purity and personality of the 2019 Clos du Papillon. It has a sense of roundness and curved edges, yet maintains a sense of lightness and focus on its feet. The aromas and flavors are highly attractive: fresh apple fruit, florals and delicate almond feel. Based on previous vintages, this will gain more complexity, weight and savory layers with a decade under its belt. Yes, you could drink it now, but it'll be a lot more interesting if you wait.
