Domaine Bernard Baudry
Le Clos Guillot Chinon Cabernet Franc
Chinon, Touraine, Loire Valley, France
Ruby with aromas of berry fruits and herb spice, from 30-year old vines. On the palate flavors of red berry fruits, herbs and pepper spice, vivid acidity, fine tight tannins with medium finish ending with earthy spice. Drink now, pair this with a roasted Cornish Hen with a mushroom sauce.

Popped and poured; no formal notes. While I found this delicious and enjoyable out the gate, the 2019 “Le Clos Guillot” always felt like it was really holding its cards close to the chest. This continued for almost a week before it really started to show more of what it has to offer. If you have multiples, it might be fun to try one while it’s really fresh but the best will come after 2029.
