Patrick Baudouin
In the Anjou Noir region, Patrick Baudouin is engaged in meticulous work with Chenin grapes, producing both dry and sweet wines depending on the conditions of the vintage. The vineyard is primarily planted on schist soils, which give the wines a tight structure and the characteristic tension of the region.
The winemaking process emphasizes the use of native yeasts and extended aging, carried out with patience to allow the wine to develop naturally. This approach results in wines that are straightforward and precise, sometimes reserved in their youth, but with a genuine capacity to evolve over time.
The wines are characterized by bright fruit, a clean finish, and a clear expression of the terroirs of the “Black Anjou” region. The estate’s entire winemaking process follows a rigorous and consistent approach, establishing Patrick Baudouin as a recognized authority on Chenin in this part of the Loire Valley.
