Richness combined with minerality. Quince, honey and white pears are the dominant characters in this powerful, round wine; however, with its hot pepper element, this tastes of its alcohol. The acidity is here, but lost in the wood.

Damien Laureau is a new name in Savennières, taking over in 1999 from his uncle. As with all Savennières, this is dry, but the wood aging rounds out the fruit to give a superrich wine. Flavors of mango and pear jam go with the smooth vanilla of the wood. It feels sweet, but tastes dry. The acidity keeps the alcohol at bay.
