Chateau de la Grille

A historic and visually stunning property in the Chinon appellation, Château de la Grille is singularly devoted to crafting exceptional wines from 100% Cabernet Franc. Now under the stewardship of the renowned Baudry-Dutour family, the estate’s unique, south-facing limestone-clay slopes produce wines that are both powerful and elegantly structured. Unlike many in Chinon who blend from different terroirs, Château de la Grille focuses on expressing the distinct character of its own celebrated vineyard. The result is a classic, age-worthy Chinon that beautifully balances rich, dark fruit with the grape’s signature finesse.
