Yeah. Savagnin hits differently compared to Domaine de la Tournelle Terre de Gryphées 2002. That toasted sesame note catches you off guard at first - then unfolds into this whole tapestry of yellow fruits, wisps of smoke, and this… incredible maritime energy. The acidity has this electric current running through it, keeping everything vibrating at just the right frequency. There's good fruit here, concentrated but not heavy. And that hint of honey at the edges… just enough to soften the edges without dulling them. Fascinating stuff, especially considering its age.
