Damien Laureau, Savennieres "Les Genets", 2019
Les Genêts comes from sandy-silt soils in Savennières—lighter and earlier-drinking than Damien Laureau's other cuvées, though "earlier-drinking" in Savennières still means years of potential. About 750 cases produced. Certified organic since 2012, indigenous yeast, separate vinifications by terroir to preserve soil expression. The 2019 has had time to open up; Savennières Chenin often needs it. Damien's grandfather-farmer instincts meet Loire tradition here—wines of place, not intervention.
