Note di degustazione
The vines of Les Grézeaux are Baudry’s oldest, at more than 70 years old. Aged 12 months in older barrels. Intensity is the watchword here, beginning with a vivid purple color. Earthy, smoky nose with notes of tobacco, cigar, white pepper and grilled fruit. On the palate, fresh and full of blueberry, black olive, some underlying smoke and dry elegant tannins on the long finish. Complex, ageworthy and excellent value. (Drink between 2020-2047) (JW)

The 2017 Chinon Les Grézeaux is from the valley and cultivated on gravelly soils with sand and clay. Fermented in cement and aged for the first time in a large oak cask and also in concrete, this dark-colored Cabernet Franc offers a beautifully intense and floral bouquet of dark ripe fruits. It is smooth, sweet and generous on the palate, super ripe, round and well concentrated, with lots of dark fruit flavors (blue berries) and remarkably fresh elegance and finesse. Tasted in June 2021.
