2009 Domaine des Baumard Clos du Papillon Savennièr es

t they had 2009 Domaine des Baumard Clos du Papillon Savennières on th eir "Last Bottle" list at a great price so I ordered the last bottle to dri nk with Dover Sole. The wine guy (long time friend) suggested decanting so it spent about 30 minutes in the decanter prior to service. Pale golden c olor, fairly tight nose of peaches and wet limestone gravel. Nice mouthfee l and good length. Apple, honeysuckle, almond and minerals. The wine was quite smooth and showed very little age. Nice bottle at a great price (und er $50) B+/A-

thanks I used to buy this regularly, but for some reason haven't in years. Think l ast Baumards I bought were 2005s. Was this cork or screwcap? Remember Baumard started making move towards SC in mid-aughts

Still by a bit of this as it is great over the summer.
