La Calèche is an easy-drinking, very approachable wine, full of freshness and smoothness. A dry white with lovely floral and fruity aromas, it’s very expressive of the Loire Valley on the palate, with a harmonious and nuanced character. A delightful introduction to the Baumard lineup!

About the estate:
“The Baumard family settled at the Logis de la Giraudière in 1959. Florent Baumard joined his father, Jean, in 1987 and now manages the estate. Here, we alternate between tilling the soil and grass cover (every other row) to preserve the microbial life and its humus potential, and to prevent soil compaction. Thanks to his mastery of winemaking and a deep understanding of the identity of each of his terroirs, Florent Baumard offers an astonishing range of wines.”

A mediocre wine—well chilled but too acidic. For the price, there are several better white wines available.
