June 8, 2018 - A relatively complex nose of lime, honey, rich apricot, flowers and star fruit. A richer body with slightly oxidized fruit, with a suggestion of oak (or chestnut?) barrel ageing. A very long and mineral finish. Worked really well (in place of a Chardonnay) with simple Mediterranean baked salmon (salt, black pepper, olive oil.)

March 13, 2018 - yellow apple and quince tasting somewhat flat. I was expecting to love this wine based on other vintages from Baumard, but this felt somewhat tired and out of balance. Still enjoyable, but maybe worth drinking sooner

November 5, 2017 - Soft aromas and flavors of lemon and pineapple, with a touch of minerality. Medium acidity.

August 5, 2017 - Blind Tasting in SLC: Tasted Blind
Yellow wine with a bright silver rim
Delicate nose, but likely because it was just too cold, held for a while to warm up.
Apple, pear, lemon, melon and peach, kind of a fruit salad. Also shows a funky, wool taste with hints of botrytis from a mushroom note. Dry, with diminished acidity. Slight bitter hint as well which really through me. I should have known what this is, all the signs point to Savennières, but I was lost...
Baumard makes a great wine, that being said I almost always prefer the slightly fresher style of most Vouvray
