Thibaud Boudignon is a highly acclaimed winemaker in the Loire Valley, celebrated for his intense and precise Chenin Blancs. He practices organic and biodynamic viticulture, ensuring the highest quality from his vineyards. The "Cuvée à Françoise" is a deeply personal wine, named in honor of his late mother, crafted from his finest Anjou plots with 35-year-old Chenin Blanc vines. This dedication to excellence is evident as his wines are featured in numerous Michelin three-star restaurants. The 2017 vintage is known for its vibrant character. Tasting notes reveal a complex bouquet of minerals, stone, and honey, intertwined with bright citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit, and hints of apple and pear. Some tasters also find nuances of gardenia, fennel, kumquat zest, and a subtle smoky reduction, leading to a dense palate with a refined tannic structure and bright acidity that promises excellent aging potential. It's a white wine that is both tropical and beautifully balanced. Food pairing suggestions include versatile options such as vegetarian dishes, poultry, rich fish like salmon or tuna, and a variety of mild and soft cheeses, as well as chicken and turkey. This wine is perfectly suited for a sophisticated dinner party, a special occasion celebrating exceptional French white wines, or as an impressive highlight at a gourmet tasting menu event. 【Used in Michelin 3-star restaurants】
