THE STORY

About this wine

Dry, mineral-driven Savennières from 100% Chenin Blanc grown organically on the schist of the La Frémine single plot — white flowers, lime, orchard fruit, and a finish that runs long and saline.

Domaine FL is the name used by Domaine Fournier Longchamps, a family estate established in 2006–2007 in Rochefort-sur-Loire, Maine-et-Loire, near Angers. La Frémine is an organic Savennières cuvée made from grapes harvested from the single plot of the same name, on schist soils. The estate reports that its white wines undergo no malolactic fermentation, helping preserve acidity and aromatic expression.

Worth knowing

Concentrated and super elegant in 2019 — the depth here rides saline minerality and lively acidity the whole way.

CHARACTERISTICS AND TASTING TIPS OF THE Domaine FL Savennieres Fremine 2019

Tasting

Color: Pale yellow in the glass, with a brilliant shine.
Nose: White flowers and lime lead, with citrus blossom, quince, and pear coming in behind, and just a subtle honeyed note underneath.
Palate: Saline up front and creamy through the middle, with orchard fruit, lemon zest, and almond layered in. Lively acidity keeps it moving, and the finish runs long and mineral.
