Domaine Philippe Alliet Chinon, Vieilles Vignes , 2018
Chinon
€39.50
750ml Bottle
A stunning and complex Cabernet Franc from 60-year-old vines. Intense and concentrated with notes of blackcurrant, ripe red fruits, and earthy undertones. A splendid and complex wine showing purity and carrying finesse.
Philippe Alliet and his son Pierre produce Chinon wines with attitude, and which are wonderfully composed, reminding us that wines don’t have to be powerful to be beautiful.
The Chinon appellation covers eighteen villages along the river Vienne. This is Cabernet Franc’s heartland and where the red wine gems of Touraine are produced. This is also the birthplace of François Rabelais who once wrote: ‘When I drink, I think; and when I think, I drink.’
