Clos Baudoin 2024

Clos Baudoin is produced by Domaine Chidaine, located in the Loire Valley, France. The estate is known for its biodynamic viticulture and commitment to expressing the terroir of the region.

The wine is made primarily from Chenin Blanc grapes, a signature variety of the Loire Valley known for its versatility and aging potential.

Domaine Chidaine employs biodynamic farming practices in the Clos Baudoin vineyard, avoiding synthetic chemicals and emphasizing soil health. The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo natural fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Aging typically occurs in a combination of stainless steel tanks and neutral oak barrels to preserve freshness and complexity without overpowering oak influence.

Clos Baudoin offers a vibrant and expressive profile characterized by bright acidity and mineral-driven flavors. Expect aromas of white flowers, green apple, citrus zest, and subtle honeyed notes. On the palate, it is fresh and lively with a textured mouthfeel and a long, elegant finish marked by saline minerality.
