Loire Valley Cabernet Franc Rose, definitely for me one of the best I have ever had, but it's Buadry so I guess I should not be surprised! Thanks @grapeylyle for the reccs and @kermitlynchwine for bringing it in. #baudry #chinon 🌹

Completely dry in 2015. No filtration necessary. Coming not soon enough. #baudry #chinon

Лимонная цедра, красная смородина, зелёный крыжовник, щавель, очень лёгкая дымность. Тонкая, но решительная органолептика с перевесом в сторону белого вина; вибрирующая кислотность; фантомная, сверхлёгкая танинность. Несложно, прямолинейно, но с хорошим балансом и уверенной структурой. Бодряще и освежающе.

Clear pale rose color. Medium (-) aroma intensity. Burned sugar and citrus on the nose. Light creamy taste. Refreshing with medium acidity. Good for picnic on hot summer days. Manual harvested Cabernet Franc from 20 yrs young vines planted on 2 ha of gravel soils. Direct press, fermentation in unlined cement vats until dry. 2015 was the hottest vintage in 50 years. Bernard Baudry is well-known Chinon’s traditionalist producing classic style wines. Rating 3,3/5

Subtle fruit with an even tart body. Crisp and bright with a full, rich finish. The overall experience is sweet with just the right amount of tannin. A great Rosé.

If the swelled bellied orange marmot sat squat atop the cranium of a bellicose, belligerent human representation of a malignant tumor hasn't got your disposition a bit in the dumps, please pass on this wine; you obviously lack the qualities of a thoughtful human being and should stick to wines marketed as domestic dispute. For those of us who prefer life in varied tones, who revel in the complexities and nuance intrinsic in existence: find yourself a bottle of this elegant rose. Subtle, but present. Profound, yet humble. A profile of elegance, an example that all the ugliness vomited out into our lives cannot deny us our simple pleasure in life.
