Score 93/100 · Drink 2024-2030, Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, May 2024
The golden-hued 2017 Saumur Blanc L’Échelier shows ripe flavors of pineapple, honey and truffle, almost as if there's some botrytis—but there's not. It’s bone-dry, yet there's a tender middle to this light-bodied wine. Expect iodine, giving a salty-like-the-sea impression. The 2017 is ready to enjoy now.
