Picked early, on the 1st of September, the 2014 Chinon Les Picasses is from limestone soils and was aged for 12 months in 50-hectoliter foudres. The wine is dark and offers a clear, fresh and concentrated bouquet of dark fruits and spices. Full-bodied, ripe and intense yet very fresh and vital in its chalky minerality, this is a very elegant, silky textured yet firmly structured, very promising Chinon with a long finish. Very fine tannins.

Dark and developed, this red features integrated tannins on a well-knit structure, while acidity underscores the ripe dark berry fruit and imparts good energy. Savory herbal notes emerge on the long finish. Drink now through 2025. 1,000 cases imported.??–AZ??Region: France / Loire / Chinon Select to Add
