2021 Thierry Germain Saumur Blanc L'Insolite

Producer: Thierry Germain 
Region: Saumur, Loire, France 
Varietal: Chenin Blanc 
Year: 2021 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Thierry’s Insolite, meaning “unusual,” comes from a tiny plot of gnarled 90-year-old Chenin Blanc vines embedded in clayey, silex-rich soils over chalky limestone bedrock. The combination of ancient vines and special terroir result in an ultra elegant and finely-etched expression of the grape. A sensorial springboard to the charms of Thierry’s mineral-driven whites, Insolite is loaded with notes of citrus skin, ripe orchard fruits, river rocks, and a touch of smoke. The extraordinary depth, freshness, and precision in the glass will leave no doubt that this is Saumur blanc at its most scintillating."
