La Calèche is an easy, approachable wine, full of freshness and fluidity. A dry white with lovely floral and fruit aromas, very expressive of the Loire Valley on the palate, with a harmonious, nuanced character. A gourmet entry to the Baumard range!

Expert opinion
Guide des Vins Gault & Millau
Estate rated (2012 guide) 5*Stars (Outstanding production)
About the domain :
"The Baumard family established themselves at Logis de la Giraudière in 1959. Florent Baumard joined his father, Jean, in 1987 and now runs the estate. Here, we alternate between working the soil and planting grass (one row in two), in order to preserve the microbiological fauna and its humus potential, and avoid settling. Thanks to a perfect mastery of winemaking and a fine understanding of the identity of each of his terroirs, Florent Baumard offers an astonishing range of wines. "

A mediocre wine, fresh but too acidic. For its price, there are several of the best white wines.
