Tasting the 2009 vintage at Domaine Baudry reminds me of the 1989's. Although the vintage 2009 isn't better than 89, in my opinion, the Baudry's have progressed in their vineyard work and winemaking and are now the top estate in Chinon. This first red of 2009 has deep red purple color and is is bursting with strawberry and red currant fruit. There is good acidity and the alcohol level is moderate at 12.3%, making this a refreshing and delicious wine for summer cook-outs, or all year long. Congratulations to the Baudrys, who are now in conversion for organic certification, for this yummy wine, really "super-bon!"
