Domaine Arnaud Lambert Saumur "Coulée de St-Cyr" dry white 2021:

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (Y. Castaing, June 2024): 93/100. The 2021 Coulée de St-Cyr is crafted from vines planted inside Les Perrières lieu-dit on calcareous and marl soils. The wine exudes a complex, deep bouquet of lemon oil, lime tree leaves, white fruits and spices. Medium to full-bodied, sappy and seamless, it’s perfectly balanced with a fleshy core of fruit and a saline, ethereal finish. Fermented and matured for two years in wooden tanks, it needs time. DRINK DATE 2024-2040.
