Notes: Robert Parker 92/100, Gault Millau 16/20
"Superb aromatics with sweet notes of mirabelle plum and nectarine. The silky palate, with aromas of gentian, brings us back to earth, dry, elegant, and delicately spiced. The finish of candied ginger awakens the taste buds. " (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2012 - Gault Millau)

Food and wine pairings
Ce vin ne s’impose pas par lui-même mais en servant la cuisine qu’il accompagne. Une large capacité d’accompagnement à table du fait de ses saveurs équilibrées : hors d’œuvres, huîtres plates, crustacés, poissons grillés ou en sauce, veau en sauce...<br/>

Rated estate (2012 guide) 5 stars (Outstanding production)
About the estate:
The Baumard family settled at the Giraudière estate in 1959. Florent Baumard joined his father, Jean, in 1987 and now runs the estate. Here, we alternate between tilling the soil and grass cover (every other row) in order to preserve the microbiological fauna and its humus potential, and to prevent soil compaction. Thanks to his perfect mastery of winemaking and a keen understanding of the identity of each of his terroirs, Florent Baumard offers an astonishing range of wines."
