Anjou Blanc as it should be — and one of the great Chenin bargains in the Loire. Thibaud Boudignon has, in just over fifteen years, become a defining name in Loire Chenin: biodynamic farming, hands-on viticulture across schist, volcanic rhyolite, and sand-over-schist parcels in the heart of Anjou and Savennières. This entry-tier Anjou Blanc comes from roughly 35-year-old vines on grey schist and rhyolite, fermented with indigenous yeasts (no malolactic), aged in 228L, 350L, and 500L barrels with about 20% new oak. The result is Chenin in three dimensions — citrus, beeswax, and stone — at a price the Savennières bottlings can only dream of.

More about Thibaud Boudignon

Thibaud Boudignon makes some of the most electric dry Chenin Blanc in the Loire: Savennières and Anjou Blanc that taste less of honey and ripe fruit than of salt, citrus and schist.

Boudignon grew up partly in Bordeaux and wanted to be an Olympic judo champion. When that didn't pan out, he went to work in vineyards and cellars, in the South of France, in Bordeaux, in Australia and in Gevrey-Chambertin, before arriving at Château Soucherie in Savennières in 2007. In 2009 he began making wine under his own name, starting with bought grapes and an Anjou Blanc named for his mother, Françoise, and his grandfather, François. His centerpiece is the Clos de la Hutte, a walled former abbey site in La Possonnière, which he bought and replanted with massale selections of old-vine Chenin, some from Domaine Huet.

The farming is biodynamic and close to obsessive; the soils are thin clay over the fractured dark schist locals call Anjou Noir. He presses whole clusters, ferments with native yeasts in old barrels and concrete, blocks malolactic to keep the acidity, and never fines or filters. There's also a bone-dry Rosé de Loire, mostly Cabernet Franc, made with the same care. Expect precision, energy and a long saline finish.
