Château de Varennes extends its 7 ha of Chenin Blanc over the Savennières appellation exclusively, on the northern bank of the Loire. This Savennières 2004 is typical of its terroir, showing fine aromatic finesse and minerality, and is a lovely bottle to drink straight away with river fish in a beurre blanc sauce...
