Loire - Chinon from the estate
95/100 Parker
Cellaring : 2024 - 2044
Tasting by Yohan Castaing : “This estate is known for producing relatively dense, powerful wines in ripe vintages, but the Chinon Coteau de Noiré 2021 stands out for its exceptional character. It unfolds in the glass with aromas of lead pencil, licorice, dark wild berries and blackcurrant. Full-bodied, dense and thick, it's fluid and velvety, with a layered fruity core framed by powdery, generous tannins, continuing through to a long, mineral finish framed by perfectly controlled power. I appreciate wines like this that express pure terroir and are capable of long aging. Keep it for the next ten years.
Philippe Alliet's Chinon Côteau de Noiré is one of the Chinon appellation's most emblematic cuvées. Made from Cabernet Franc vines carefully cultivated on clay-limestone slopes, this wine embodies the elegance and depth of the great terroirs of the Loire. Its complex nose combines ripe black fruit, subtle spices and a touch of minerality. On the palate, its structure is both rich and harmonious, with fine tannins and freshness that promise excellent ageing potential. This wine reflects Philippe Alliet's expertise and passion for magnifying his terroir. A must for lovers of wines with character.
