Domaine Bernard Baudry Chinon Blanc 2023

This is a pale yellow hue in the glass, hinting at its freshness and vibrancy. On the nose, it opens with bright, zesty citrus notes—think lemon zest and mandarin peel—paired with the delicate sweetness of ripe quince. Subtle undertones of white peach and green apple lend a sense of depth with faint nuttiness and a stony earthiness.

Juicy pear and golden apple flavors unfold alongside hints of candied ginger and a whisper of honeyed chamomile. A vibrant acidity cuts through the richness. The pronounced minerality, reminiscent of crushed seashells and wet slate, adds texture. The finish is long with citrus zest and a touch of salinity
