The field

Bernard Baudry looking silky and civilized of the Chinon, size while remaining closer to their expression of terroir. This approach, he now pursues with his son Mathieu, doubles as an organic certification. A philosophy that inspires them also the planting of vines grafted, Frank of foot for ten years (following the 1980s Charles Joguet plantations), and implementation on a new forgotten terroirs, such the great Clos Guillot in Chinon. Their cross apart (clay-limestone soil of Cravant-les-Coteaux), built for the guard, has an extra velvety and sometimes sweetness in hot years, which is not to displease the great lovers of Saint-Emilion wines. This wine naturally takes the lead of the big reds from Touraine.

Wines: we love the whole and particularly ripe cabernet-franc definition in 2015 in each wine, from the "simple" chinon. Terroirs expressed beautifully, and with a lot of SAP in the localities, through subtly floral bouquets that offer a beautiful chalky feeling and graphite particularly the intense cross apart. Still on the reserve, these big Reds open quietly at table as soon as 2019. RVF Guide green 2018
