Francois Chidaine Vouvray Clos Baudoin 2022
Vineyards
Run biodynamically. The preparations used come only from the processed plant, animal and mineral materials.
Winemaking and Maturation
After pressing, the alcoholic fermentation is carried out by indigenous yeasts in demi-muids, pieces of wood with a capacity of 600 liters. It can last up to six months. “Malolactic fermentation” is not sought. Ageing is carried out on fine lees, always in demi-muids.
Tasting Notes
Clos Baudoin is a legendary Vouvray terroir. This does need time, or at the very least, a long decant if you plan on busting through it in its infancy. This is remarkable. Intense, refined, explosive, moreish, effortless. It’s as good as dry Chenin Blanc can get.
