A very long wine in the mouth with a citrus attack, followed by notes of ripe fruits, exotic fruits and a beautiful bitterness at the end of the mouth. The long aging on lees gives it a very beautiful fatness. Pure, straight and very elegant. The tension and superb length in the mouth make it a great gastronomic wine, for lobster, scallops, smoked fish, turbots or other John Dory. It is also interesting with delicate white meats such as capon or veal, accompanied by truffles or mushrooms. Great mountain cheeses such as an old Salers or a 5 or 6 year old Comté also work wonders with this great Savennières.

The 2021 Savennières Clos du Papillon offers up a tender and somewhat early-picking bouquet with aromas of herbs, menthol, spring flowers and lemon oil. With a medium to full-bodied, deep and fleshy palate, it's perfectly balanced with a sappy, long finish despite some bitter notes. Give it a little time to digest its bottling, and it will offer excellent drinking.
