Damien Laureau Savennieres Les Genets 2016 verdejo Ned GoodwinFrom vineyards clustered around the Moulin de Beauprau at the far northern edge of the appellation, Damien sources the fruit for his Savennire Les Gents. This is a light sandy terroir of schist and phtanite making for a more approachable style of Savennire. It is aged in 400L French oak barrels for 12 months then 4 6 months in tank before bottling.
