Arnaud Lambert
“Arnaud Lambert is one of the finest producers in Saumur, namely of Chenin Blanc. His organically and biodynamically cultivated wines are all pure, intense and mineral and characterized by their long and stimulating salty and refreshing finish.” – Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate, October 2021
Historically, Saumur or more precisely Brézé, has been a reference point for fine French wine as royalty exchanged these wines annually for Chateau d’Yquem Sauternes. Such has been the reknown for the magnificent hill of Brézé over the centuries, and once again attention is turning o this great hill as a source of incomparable whites that are often compared with Montrachet, the greatest of white Burgundies.
Arnaud Lambert is helping to discover the expression and diversity of soils and individual terroirs in the appellations of Saumur and Saumur-Champigny. The goal is to give expression to each individual terroir and realize each vineyard sites potential through organic viticulture (transitioning to bio-dynamic) and minimal intervention wine-making.
What’s most incredible about Arnaud is his ability to churn out such quality with nearly twenty different cuvées rendered from more than fourty hectares of vineyards.
His wines are spectacular etched jewels, short and pretension and confection, and long on harmonious depth and purity.
