Saumur Brézé Clos David Arnaud Lambert 2021

The wine

This Saumur is a single Chenin grape variety grown on a sandy-silty-limestone soil. Aged for a year in used barriques (between two and three wines), it is blessed with excellent aging potential estimated from 10 to 15 years. On tasting, its floral nose heralds a fresh palate, counter-balanced by its sweet, delicious, full-bodied nature.

About the Producer Arnaud Lambert

A true nature lover, Arnaud Lambert manages his domain using methods which are extremely respectful of nature. So, he converted his domain to organic agriculture and subsequently to biodynamic agriculture. Arnaud Lambert inherited this domain from his father Yves who created it in 1996. He returned to the domain at the age of 47 to learn the art of wine making and take up the reins.
Today there are 15 hectares of vines in St-Cyr-en-Bourg and 15 hectares in Brézé. Embracing his vintner vocation in 2005, Arnaud Lambert has begun to stand out, producing wines reputed for their finesse, purity, and precision.
This is a top pick for the Bettane+Desseauve Guide who placed this domain in their Top 100 producers of 2019. Their review begins with the words ‘Arnaud Lambert is one of the Loire's most talented wine makers'…We'll say no more, except that this domain is becoming a regional reference, so you'd do well to taste its superb cuvées!
