2023 Bernard Baudry Chinon Le Rose Red Wine – Estate-Bottled Cabernet Franc

Experience the authentic spirit of Loire Valley with Bernard Baudry’s remarkable 2023 Chinon Rosé. Crafted exclusively from young-vine Cabernet Franc grapes grown in the mineral-rich, gravelly soils along the Vienne River, this vibrant rosé captures the true essence of its unique terroir.

Matthieu Baudry honors tradition through meticulous natural winemaking. Unlike most commercial rosés, this wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts and completes full malolactic conversion – rare practices that preserve genuine character and create exceptional texture. The result? A beautifully balanced expression where lively red fruit notes harmonize with distinctive river stone minerality and subtle spice.

Expect a refreshing yet complex palate: think ripe strawberries and raspberries enveloped in a gentle, creamy texture. Bright natural acidity provides lift, making it incredibly food-friendly and perfect for warm weather enjoyment. At 12.5% alcohol, it offers satisfying depth without heaviness.

This natural Loire rosé stands apart for its purity and artisanal approach. It delivers an authentic taste of Chinon – unoaked, unfiltered, and full of energetic charm. Discover why discerning wine lovers seek out Baudry’s distinctive Cabernet Franc rosé vintage after vintage.
