Closel Savennieres 'La Jalousie' '20

A benchmark expression of Chenin Blanc, this wine displays a luminous golden hue and a profound nose of yellow apple, lanolin, and toasted hazelnut. The palate is both powerful and precise, with flavors of quince paste, marzipan, and a stony minerality that scored 95 points. Aged 18 months in neutral oak with regular lees stirring, it achieves incredible density at 14% alcohol while retaining vibrant acidity. The minute-long finish unfolds with honeycomb and crushed chalk notes. Decant briefly for roasted turbot or truffled chicken to experience its majestic evolution.
