Boudignon works almost exclusively with Chenin Blanc, and his wines from Savennières and Anjou are among the best in the world. The one exception to his Chenin Blanc supremacy is this perfect pink wine, made from mostly Cabernet Franc and a splash of Grolleau. Like all of Boudignon’s wines, this is made in the vineyard. Thibaud has farmed organically since the beginning; he's a vigneron in the truest sense, and continues to work extensively in the vineyard himself. It's bright and fresh, with juicy fruit flavors, tempting salinity, and delicate floral notes. It's light in body and in hue (thanks to a short maceration), but it's sneakily complex and deeply mineral.
Fresh and fruity, with the flavor of little red berries and watermelon rind, as well as delectable mineral and saline notes. This is bright and zippy, a summer treat you'd be smart to have in reserve through the fall.
