Brendan Stater-West Breze Saumur Blanc 23

The Brendan Stater-West Saumur Blanc "Brézé" is a 100% Chenin Blanc that serves as a benchmark for the chiseled, mineral-driven style of the Loire Valley. High-toned and complex, featuring lemon curd, quince, white flowers, and a distinct wet limestone or flinty character. Some tasters also note hints of clove and white pepper. Chiseled and linear with electric acidity. It offers layers of ruby grapefruit, green apple, and pear skin, anchored by a deep saline minerality. Long and saline finish with a subtle creaminess on the back end, likely from aging on fine lees.
