Baumard Clos du Papillon

Jean Baumard and Florent, his son, oversee 110 acres of vineyards in Anjou, including these in the Clos du Papillon, a south- and southeast-facing hillside overlooking the Loire. This wine layers savory button mushroom notes over a smoky meatiness. Its deep yellow flavors of pineapple energize the wine with freshness, a concentrated Savennieres to serve with a selection of cheeses before or after dinner.
