Rated three stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide.
« Félicitons François Chidaine pour son savoir-faire sur toutes les cuvées issues de ses 37 hectares de vignoble. Ce vigneron consciencieux est devenu l’un des as du chenin grâce à des efforts culturaux biodynamiques. »
Bettane + Desseauve – Guide 2022
« Depuis ses débuts en 1989, François Chidaine est devenu un acteur majeur des blancs de Loire, un styliste hors pair désormais vénéré par de nombreux autres vignerons. Il fait partie de ceux qui ont réveillé Montlouis, son fief d'origine. Nous ne tarissons pas d'éloges sur le niveau atteint par les vins de ce vigneron d'exception. Un domaine incontournable pour tout amoureux des grandes expressions ligériennes du chenin. »

The Vouvray wines of Domaine Chidaine (Les Argiles, Baudoin) are hidden under the appellation Vin de France. They can no longer claim the Vouvray appellation since 2011 because they are vinified at the estate in Montlouis-sur-Loire (i.e. on the other side of the bridge over the Loire) and not in the commune of Vouvray. The INAO has reasons that reason does not know!More- To keep or to drink:
