Winemaker Notes
"Superb aromas of almonds and minerals can be found in the nose of the 2002 Savennieres. Medium-bodied, revealing gorgeous depth, this dry effort boasts loads of limestone, almond, and candied citrus flavors in its rich, wonderfully ripe personality. In addition, its character reveals a lengthy, pure finish. Drink it over the next 5 years."

The Baumard family has been wine growing wine at Rochefort in the Anjou for centuries, working with the noble Chenin in what has long been accepted as its natural home, the slate-covered hillside vineyards along the Loire and Layton rivers. In 1953, the Baumard family acquired a vineyard in the Quarts de Chaume, and in 1968, purchased substantial acreage in Savennieres. Jean Baumard, an enologist and educator, as well as grower, introduced significant innovations to the winemaking region, bringing the dry wines of Savennieres, as well as his sweet wines, Quarts de Chaumes and Coteaux du Layon back to prominence. Now in retirement, further innovation has been carried on by Jean's son, Florent.
