A finely poised Saumur Blanc from Arnaud Lambert the 2021 Les Perrières reveals a pale straw hue and delivers a luminous expression of Chenin Blanc purity. Its aromatic profile suggests dried apricot, citrus and stone‑mineral nuances, while the palate unfolds with saline tension, sinewy structure and a chalk‑tinged vitality that speaks of its limestone‑rich terroir.
