Description
The 2020 Clos du Papillon is shy aromatically, offering up restrained characters of white stone fruit, almond meal and an intriguing whiff of smokiness. It is a textured Savennieres, initially caressing the mouth with it’s silken texture before showcasing its true colors: this is a powerful style with drive. Its tension, austere acidity and phenolic grain reflect its poor volcanic soils. Compared with the 2019, it is more balanced (lower alcohol), taut and precise, and that’s welcome.
