Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 2007

Baumardâ_Ts 2004 Savennieres Clos du Papillon smells alluringly and pungently of lemon, white pepper, flowers and herbs, with a distinctively appellation-typical note of oyster shell. Bracing and juicy and positively lilting, yet densely concentrated on the palate, it finishes with amazing intensity of salt, chalk and stone as well as infectious citricity. While it will strike some tasters as austere â_" and there is certainly a trace of bitterness â_" it should gain richness over the next 8-12 years. Importer: Ex Cellars wine Agencies, Cambridge, MA; tel. (617) 876-5105

Wine Spectator, May 2007

Pure, with a porcelain like texture supporting mineral, lime and quince flavors that run along a rapier of a finish. Shows great precision and clarity. Drink now through 2012. 1,500 cases made. –JM

About Winery

Domaine des Baumard is tucked away in the village of Rochefort-sur-Loire, which lies at the northern end of the Coteaux du Layon appellation, just a little way north of Quarts de Chaume. It's not too difficult to find, situated on the rue Saint Croix, just to the left of the huge church which dominates the village; the dull grey lettering adherent to the stone wall, next to the large gateway, informing you of your arrival. Beyond the gateway, and along the immaculately graveled drive, you find the old Logis de la Giraudiere, acquired by the family in 1959. Here you will find the extensive cellars and a fine tasting room.
