Well balanced, earthy and fruity, medium length. (2624 views) | | Tasted by johnnyrichardson on 12/30/2013 & rated 83 points: I was hoping these would improve further, but I don't think they will. Time to drink up if you have any. (2588 views) | | Tasted by martcouz on 5/25/2011 & rated 89 points: La Cabernet Franc est très détectable et typique mais j'adore. Malgré ses 8 ans, il y a un côté végétal assez prononcé. Belle structure. On dirait qu'il est encore tout jeune. (3977 views) | | Tasted by Headless on 7/21/2010 & rated 87 points: Frankly disappointed for this wine, had greater expectations from one of the best producers in Chinon. The nose had a hint of cream, light red berries and some smokyness. The palate was thin, where is the fruit? Well made wine, just boring. (4076 views) | | Tasted by mkaminski on 4/27/2010 & rated 87 points: Dark cherry-ruby colour. In the beginning aromas of mushrooms and yeast, then fruity aromas of sour cherries, dark plums, black currant and licorice.Very aromatic. On the palate dominant acidity and moderate tannins. (4207 views) | | Tasted by BoireBio on 2/19/2010 & rated 89 points: 16,5/20 V: Grenat aux reflets marons O: En bouche....Wow ! Notes de tabac et animale, cèdre. Très belle complexité aromatique. Le nez est vraiment sublime et il me comble. G: En bouche, il offre de beaux tannins. On sent le bois, le thé noir, la terre. Bref, beaucoup d'expression du terroir. C'est original, raçé sans avoir une structure carrée. Finesse ! Excellent. Super beau Chinon à 24$C àa la SAQ (2295 views) | | Tasted by ludwigbpm on 2/22/2009 & rated 87 points: Nez plutôt simple, avec un certain côté compoté. En bouche c'est étonnament mince, les tanins accrochent un peu. Il s'avère plus équilibré après une heure d'aération. Bon vin, sans plus. (2246 views) | | Tasted by johnnyrichardson on 11/8/2008 & rated 85 points: Nice earthy Loire red, tannic and slightly "vegetale". Not at all ready, it's well and truly gone to sleep. To taste again in 2-3 years minimum, this should be very good if I can wait long enough. (1880 views) |
