Un bon Chinon à point, qui semble avoir malheureusement dépassé son apogée. Sur les fruits noirs séchés, fin poivron, tout est intégré. Manque un peu d'éclat.

A private lunch (Restaurant Wils *, Amsterdam, NL): Meaty, spicy depth, minerally freshness, ripe vegetal notes, more herbs than flowers, supple and fresh, almost completely resolved (skin) tannins, intense but elegant and hamonious style, palpable tuff on the finish, good length.

91 Excelente. Granate, comenzando a mostrar signos de edad, pero muy entero aún. Nariz muy frutal, más de lo esperado, fruta roja ácida. Fondo vegetal y de pimiento, varietal. En boca es un vino ya en muy buen momento de consumo, domado, tanino suave, equilibrado, y bastante largo. Se nota fruta , y tiene un final fresco. Muy bueno.

Hasn’t evolved much, but a lovely wine. Black cherry, soil tones, and just a little cab franc funkiness, but wrapped up a mid-weight, rather elegantly textured package. Needs an hour or more of air to open.

High toned red fruit, linear and direct. Wins points for its purity and nicely focused mineral backbone. Could use a bit more stuffing to balance the acid. Enjoyable wine, detailed and pretty, not a great value proposition however.
