Domaine Bernard Baudry 'Le Domaine' Chinon, 2023, 750ml
$31
Description
Pure Cabernet Franc joy, designed to drink young while its rose petal and brambly berry perfume is at peak vibrancy. Bernard Baudry founded this estate in 1975; son Matthieu joined in 2000 and achieved organic certification in 2006. Classic Chinon such as Baudry’s “Domaine” exudes an autumnal vibe that makes it an excellent choice for serving this time of year. Its balance of dark forest berries, rain-soaked earth, and gravelly tannins with a gentle bite make a pristine match for seasonal staples like game meats and wild mushrooms. It’s a textbook Chinon from one of the great traditionalist domaines, and you’ll struggle to find a red as authentic and perfectly suited to your fall table.
