2012 Chinon “Le Clos Guillot”
Bernard Baudry
★ $36.00
Move over, Rover, and let this beast of a Chinon take over. If you want to work this trio of Loire wines into a meal, follow this order: 1) Open this Baudry Chinon and let it breathe deeply. Decanting can’t hurt. 2) Sip and wonder on the Savennières as you prep or get the show started. 3) Throw a good dose of the Bretons’ Beaumont down the gullets to keep the crowd jolly. 4) Whip out the Baudry when your pièce de résistance makes it to your table. Its rich black fruit and dense chew will work wonders with your wintry stew. –Dixon Brooke
