Bernard Baudry is Chinon's greatest domaine, now run by Bernard's son Mathieu, and Les Grezeaux comes from the very first plot of vines Bernard bought back in 1975. The soils here are gravelly, just a stone's throw from the cellar, and they give a Cabernet Franc that's the juicier, more mineral of Baudry's middle cuvees. Organic farming, native-yeast fermentation, hand harvesting, the whole nine yards. The beauty of Grezeaux is its versatility: chill it down and drink it solo, or pour it alongside red meat, because it has the structure to back that up. It ages too, but you don't have to wait.

More about Bernard Baudry

The Loire is home to some of the best-kept secrets in unsung heroes of world class wine. And no Loire Hero is making greater wines than Bernard Baudry.

The magic starts with their vineyard holdings, which are typically very old vines on gravel and sandy soils with La Croix Boissee having a layer of white limestone subsoil that gives the wine that unique mineral backbone and structural depth that sets many of the world's greatest wines apart. Yup, great exposition and white soils is a sort of magical formula. Clos Rougeard's got it, so does Chablis's Grand Cru Slope and some of the best vineyards in Cote d'Or. The Baudrys farm organically, harvest by hand, and make their wine without manipulation (fermentation is with natural yeasts).

Despite the similarities to some of the world's most famous and allocated wines, Baudry remains remarkably affordable and easy to find. Why? Probably because Bernard started completely from scratch. And because he and his son, Matthieu, who has taken over most of the Domaine's operations, are humble farmers quite removed from the hype and glam of high-end wine.
