Très beau nez, pur, profond, ligérien à souhait, poivron mûr, sous-bois, mousse, fruité mûr et rouge, que la bouche vient souligner par une belle élégance de tanins, les arômes sont persistants. Seul petit déséquilibre à mon sens, une acidité légèrement appuyée, et pas totalement fondue dans l’ensemble (sans doute typée 2013) Joli Chinon au demeurant !

Red and black cherries, tart fruit, leather, a hint of green bell pepper, earth, and gamey flavors on the nose. Quite acidic with more red fruit, tart raspberries, blackberry, and more earthy notes on the palate. Nice finish. A lovely, acid driven Chinon.

Funky, slightly lactic nose with beautiful plum and cherry fruit and resolved tannins on the palate. This is a stellar cab franc with remarkable depth considering its relative youth.

Peu apprécié à l'ouverture, ce vin a besoin de beaucoup d'air, 2 jours après il se révèle sur du beau tertiaire mais le fruit est encore présent, il accompagne parfaitement quelques cèpes!

Small tasting glass @ VINEUM during service, so a brief note. Wow what a nose, very expressive! The taste impresses as well, beautiful concentration and tension. If the aftertaste was slightly longer, the score could be even higher...
