Bernard Baudry Chinon Blanc Le Domaine 2019
Chinon, Touraine, Loire, FranceThis special chenin from Chinon is grown on a limestone / sandy / clay slope of Château de Sonnay, a historical site, and very near to Domaine Bernard Baudry. This was native fermented in neutral 600L barrels, on lees with no racking until bottling. Shining and bright, with crystalline lemon, tangerine, buzzing with limestone along the lees-slicked palate. Subtle honeysuckle, green apple, chalk streams through to the finish. Drinking beautifully now.Tasted: 12 September 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $38.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
