Score 91/100 · Drink 2009, Pierre Rovani, Aug 1999
The 1997 Savennieres, which should be on retailer's shelves by year's end, reveals white flower and orange rind aromas. This medium-bodied, opulently rich, broad, and well-crafted wine is filled with flavors reminiscent of acacia blossoms, tropical fruits, and pears. It is satin-textured, forward, and immensely appealing. This wine is accessible now. Drink it over the next 10 years. Importer: Ex Cellars, Solvang, CA; tel (805) 686-9153.
