This Cabernet Sauvignon is made only when the vintage is deemed worthy. More info

This red Anjou is a single-parcel cuvée that comes from a soil rich in volcanic rock. A rarity, this particular wine is only crafted when the vintage allows it. The Cabernet sauvignon used to make it was planted in 1976 in a parcel of just one hectare. Whilst it is a minority in the region, this varietal confers density, structure, and aromatic complexity. The grapes are harvested by hand before a month-m=long vatting process that involves malolactic fermentation. In the glass we find a deep, ruby wine with an aromatic bouquet of fleshy red and black fruit, cedarwood, and liquorice. The palate is structured by beautiful tannins, inviting gastronomic pairings with characterful dishes like meat in sauce, slow-cooked lamb, or soft cheese like brie.

Anjou Les Touches Patrick Baudouin serve at a temperature of 15°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Brie à la truffe, Gigot d'agneau de sept heures, Ballotines de haricots verts.

    Information about domain Patrick Baudouin

    Founded in 1920 by Louis and Maria Juby, the great-grandparents of the current owners, Domaine Patrick Baudouin is an Angers estate of 13 hectares. The land here is made up of volcanic layers, schist and sandstone, in which the vines are grown organically. Biodiversity is encouraged, with trees grown on the same land. This domain considers its wine a ‘cultural creation’, with different appellations taking their turn in the spotlight: Savennières, Quarts-de-Chaume, Anjou (dry, demi-sec, and red), and Coteaux-du-Layon, with most of the cuvées coming from their own specific parcel. A pioneer in the production of dry Anjou, this estate is a strong advocate for the region’s terroirs. In its white, red, and dessert forms, this wine represents some of the finest that Anjou has to offer.
