"The 2016 Chinon Coteau de Noiré is truly unique, offering a vibrant, vertical, and expressive bouquet of blackcurrant, plum, blueberry, and flowers, mingling with notes of rose as it breathes. Medium-bodied, taut, and crystalline, with vertical acidity and an energetic texture, it is refined and structured by powdery tannins and a long, persistent finish. Still approachable, it can age gracefully over the next decade." Yohan Castaing
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.
