"The 2022 SavenniŠres Les Vignes Cendr,es is a powerful, ripe and focused style that buzzes with electric acidity and pulls tightly together with citrus and salinity on the finish. It has a nervy, restrained nose of iodine, brine and green-orange citrus. Smoky notes, tangerine and nectarine fill the mouth with fragrance. This is one for the long haul. It was matured in foudres, but there's no new oak."
