One of the better Cab Francs I have had! Aromas of rose, leather, and red fruits. A bit of stewed berries on the bud. Medium bodied and smooth.

Dark fruit with a touch of pyrazine complexity, still a baby but quite nice.

Absolutely beautiful Chinon. Delicious already with the balanced structure to age beautifully.

Smooth, nice legs. Not long on the palate. Rounded tannins. Ripe red fruits, jammy, peppery/spicy. Good young and aged. Good paired with meat and duck.
