I had been curious about these Morgat wines for some time and heard that the style was getting more precise in recent years. Not having tasted previous vintages I can’t make the comparison but this was still a bit too polished for my tastes. The fruit is round and polished but not at all oaky or clumsy. Yet it gets too tiring and does not inspire me to keep drinking. I want more vivacity in my Savennières!

Oswaldo Costa wrote:Hmm, I don't know the difference, at least as far as Savennieres. Is it anything you could try to put into words (for the uninitiated)?
