Classy and refined wine with a delicate boldness of funk, thanks to its age and mineral character. The tanginess is well-balanced, and the body is smooth, with a lovely close that demonstrates the wine's mineral and acidic qualities.
Voss Expert tasting note
Exhibiting a pale straw hue, Les Gruches Saumur captivates with its aromatic bouquet of white peach, honeysuckle, and a whisper of wet stone minerality, hallmark traits of its Loire Valley origin.

Les Gruches Saumur (2013) presents a refined balance of aged complexity with notable mineral character and subtle funk. While praised for its smooth body and well-integrated acidity, some may find the earthy undertones challenging. The wine's tanginess is expertly balanced against its mature structure.
Exhibiting a pale straw hue, Les Gruches Saumur captivates with its aromatic bouquet of white peach, honeysuckle, and a whisper of wet stone minerality, hallmark traits of its Loire Valley origin. On the palate, this Chenin Blanc reveals a harmonious interplay of ripe pear and quince, underscored by a vibrant acidity that enlivens its medium-bodied frame. The wine's texture is both supple and precise, with a lingering finish that echoes notes of almond and a subtle saline edge. This is a quintessential expression of Saumur, offering both finesse and depth, ideal for pairing with delicate seafood or creamy cheeses.
