2022 Domaine Labet Savagnin en Chalasse

LEGENDARY, RARE CULT NATURAL WINE!!

100% certified organic Savagnin from vines of Savagnin Vert and Jaune, planted from 1947 to 2016. Topped up and aged 22 months in oak barrels and concrete eggs, which brings texture to this zippy grape. Bottled unfined and unfiltered with zero added sulphur. Like most Labet wines, give this some air to let the reduction blow off. Bright, salty, and energetic, this is aromatic and exotic, with a rich texture and a long finish. Drinks like honey-laced lemon juice with a pinch of salt and nutty overtones. Viscous and ripe in the mouth, but still impossibly fresh. This is one of those wines that changes with every sip. Extraordinary, almost supernatural length  and texture in the mouth.  Some consider this Labet’s top wine!
