    A super-refined Savennieres with great, underplayed power. Only just beginning to come out of its shell, the spectrum of stone-fruit, citrus and floral aromas expanding with each swirl of the glass. Mind-blowing wet-stone minerality at the crescendo finish. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2025.

Domaine FL, France
Savennières is renowned for making the finest dry Chenin Blanc in the world with incredible nerve and energy. The small appellation of just 145 hectares is situated south west of Angers on the north bank of the Loire river on a mixture of schist, clay and slate. Domaine FL was created in 2007 when Philippe Fournier united two existing estates. The “Chamboureau” cuvée comes from the vines that used to belong to Château de Chamboureau. Since the takeover the vineyards are now organic, yields have dropped significantly to around 25hl/ha and during harvest the number of “passages” through the vines has increased and all the grapes are hand harvested.

Unquestionably one of the most diverse grape varieties, Chenin Blanc can do it all. It shines in every style from bone dry to unctuously sweet, oaked or unoaked, still or sparkling and even as the base for fortified wines and spirits. Perhaps Chenin Blanc’s greatest asset is its ever-present acidity, maintained even under warm growing conditions. Somm Secret—Landing in South Africa in the mid 1800s, today the country has double the acreage of Chenin Blanc planted compared to France. There is also a new wave of dedicated producers committed to restoring old Chenin vines.

Known for its delightful whites and sparkling Pétillant and Mousseux, made predominantly of Chenin blanc, Anjou has a temperate and dry maritime climate. The region's limited temperature variations are admiringly referred to locally as the “douceur angevine,” or “Anjou sweetness.” Fruit forward rosé and red wines from Cabernet Franc and Gamay merit Anjou its success within the Loire subregions.
