The estate and the wine |
|
|
A model winemaker with 2 stars in the RVF Guide, Philippe Alliet consistently produces long-macerated reds that are dazzling in fruit and maturity. These sought-after cuvées have become benchmarks in Chinon, continually showcasing a fresh, natural expression in recent vintages.
The beautiful slopes of Cravant play a significant role: these magical terroirs yield an enchanting Cabernet Franc with precision and flavor that easily rivals the finest Bordeaux expressions. |

|
The 2021 Red Chinon L'Huisserie, a single-vineyard cuvée, exudes beautiful aromas of charcoal and graphite, with subtlety and restraint. It is a wine of high concentration, both in substance and tannins. Still robust, it will reveal its full character peacefully over the next few years, with a potential to age for more than 20 years. |
