Domaine de Baumard
The Baumard property near Rochefort sur Loire in Anjou has been in the family since 1634, but it was Florent’s father, Jean, who established its wine reputation in the mid-1950s. For 60 years their wines from the surrounding appellations of Savennières, Coteaux du Layon and Quarts de Chaume have been widely acknowledged as some of the greatest wines, not only of the Loire, but of the world.
Baumard Cremant De Loire Rose
A pale Loire sparkling rosé with a fine bead and aromas of strawberry, blood orange, rose, spice and honeysuckle. The palate is very fresh and expansive, combining pure red fruit with sweet citrus and subtle minerality. Precise and lightly spicy through the finish, it makes a polished aperitif and pairs neatly with charcuterie, salmon or soft cheese.
Baumard 2023 La Calèche
Floral and lightly mineral, with a calm, understated aromatic profile. The medium-bodied palate is balanced and structured, carrying enough freshness and shape to remain composed through the finish. Its clean lines and restrained character make it especially versatile at the table. Pair with shellfish, white fish, poultry, green vegetables or goat cheese.
Domaine des Baumard NV Carte Turquoise Brut Crémant de Loire Magnum
Pale straw and finely mineral in character, with apple, peach and lemon opening the nose. Pink grapefruit adds lift on the palate, carried by refined bubbles and a brisk line of acidity. The texture remains delicate and energetic, finishing dry and persistent with a quiet biscuit note. An excellent aperitif, it also suits fresh goat cheese.

Domaine des Baumard 2021 Rosé de Loire
Bright strawberry and raspberry lead a fresh, dry rosé, with a subtle peppery note giving the fruit definition. The palate is light and balanced, its clean acidity keeping the berry character lively from start to finish. Straightforward and food-friendly, it works well with charcuterie, grilled vegetables, salmon or lightly spiced dishes.
Domaine de Baumard 2018 Coteaux du Layon Carte d’Or 375 mL
Lush but lively, with apricot, candied lemon and marmalade opening into honeyed yellow fruit and a touch of mango and pineapple. The palate is sweet yet balanced by bright acidity and a clear mineral line, keeping the generous fruit fresh and precise. A clean, zesty finish makes it a fine match for fruit desserts, blue cheese, foie gras or a lightly chilled aperitif.
Domaine des Baumard 2014 Savennières Trie Spéciale
Light gold in colour, with fig, peach, warm spice and almond on the nose. The palate is dry, rounded and powerful, carrying ripe fruit with a broad, polished texture. Chenin's natural freshness and the mineral imprint of schist and sandstone keep the richness composed. Serve as an aperitif or with shellfish, prawns, veal or lightly sweet-savoury sauces.
