Chateau de Chamboureau Savennieres Clos du Papillon Cuvee d'Avant 1996
Savennières is a highly respected white wine appellation of France's Loire valley. Located immediately southwest of the city of Angers, the parish of the same name falls within the wider Anjou district. The wines are produced from Chenin Blanc of which is the mainstay of Anjou and the central Loire.
Savennières wines are typically intensely flavored, with flavors of warm straw, beeswax and chamomile. The best examples have discernible minerality and the ripest even a honeyed tinge. Botrytis once defined all of Savennieres' output, but is less common in the wines today.
