TN: 2019 Guiberteau - Saumur Blanc "Les Moulins" (France, Loire Valley, Anjou-Saumur, Saumur)

2019 Domaine Guiberteau Saumur Blanc Les Moulins - France, Loire Valley, Anjou-Saumur, Saumur (4/1/2021)
– popped and poured –
– tasted non-blind over 2 to 3 hours –

NOSE: mostly pear; nothing crazy going on here — pretty straightforward, although there is some aspect that makes me think “zesty.”

BODY: light maize color; medium-light bodied.

TASTE: medium+ to high acidity; strong mineral; a bit lemony. Although this is very nice, I’m glad I bought just one tester bottle because this is not obviously better than the entry-level Saumur blanc, which costs about 25% less. Gut impression score: 88 - 90.
