Red dry
One of the best value wines in the Loire Valley. Made from organically grown Cabernet Franc grapes that give the wine a concentrated berry character, vibrancy, and elegance.
The bouquet reveals fresh notes of redcurrant, cranberry, and cherry, complemented by subtle hints of herbs and wildflowers. On the palate, the wine is light and refreshing, with expressive fruit-driven acidity, soft tannins, and a pleasantly smooth, clear finish.
The grapes are cultivated using organic methods and harvested by hand. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and concrete vats to preserve freshness and primary aromatics. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 7–10 months, allowing its natural fruitiness and pure expression of terroir to shine through.
Serve at a temperature of 16-17 °C with meat stews with vegetables and wild mushrooms.
Bernard Baudry, son of a winemakers’ family, started his professional life as a vine-tending consultant at the Tours laboratory, where he worked with Jacques Puisais. He had previously studied oenology in Beaune. His 5 years on the job served as an excellent apprenticeship when in 1975 he decided to start his own estate with 2 hectares of vines. His son Matthieu studied in the Mâcon area, then in Bordeaux, and, after a year working in Tasmania and California, joined his father in 2000. Domain now has 32 hectares of vineyards spread across the AOC Chinon, in Cravant les Coteaux and Chinon.The grape is grown primarily 90% Cabernet Franc (90%) plus a small production of Chenin Blanc. The vineyards are located on very varied terroirs of gravel in the plain, limestone clay on coteau and sandy limestones plateaus. This diversity offers us the possibility of applying piecemeal winemaking.
