Saumur 2013

The Saumur 2013 vintage is considered good, with a score of 3.6/5. The year was marked by a cool and wet spring followed by a relatively cool summer, which slowed down the ripening of the grapes. While the wine volume was lower than in 2012, with moderate yields, the quality remains satisfactory, especially for dry white wines. The aromatic potential is there, although the concentration is slightly less significant than in neighboring vintages. The wines from Saumur 2013 stand out for their beautiful freshness and well-balanced acidity, but they sometimes lack the richness and depth of more favorable years. Compared to other Loire appellations, this vintage fares quite well, though it lacks the roundness and complexity found in regions like Sancerre or Vouvray.
