I had dinner last night at my favorite local restaurant and I noticed that they had 2009 Domaine des Baumard Clos du Papillon Savennières on their "Last Bottle" list at a great price so I ordered the last bottle to drink with Dover Sole. The wine guy (long time friend) suggested decanting so it spent about 30 minutes in the decanter prior to service. Pale golden color, fairly tight nose of peaches and wet limestone gravel. Nice mouthfeel and good length. Apple, honeysuckle, almond and minerals. The wine was quite smooth and showed very little age. Nice bottle at a great price (under $50) B+/A-

Remember Baumard started making move towards SC in mid-aughts |
