2022 Chinon, L'Huisserie, Domaine Philippe Alliet, Loire

Description

L'Huisserie comes from the top of the hill in Alliet's vineyards – a real jewel in their crown. The beautiful, rich and intense fruit coats the mouth. This concentration is matched by beautifully ripe but strong tannins and refreshing acidity. This structure is joined by additional notes of spice and violet. The L'Huisserie will be a joy in the next few years and astounding in a decade.

Critics reviews

Yohan Castaing 93-95/100

If the Vieilles Vignes is elegant and refined, the 2022 Chinon L’Huisserie, already in barrels, is more round and structured. Offering up a floral bouquet of peony, iris and violet intertwined with dark wild berries, it’s medium to full-bodied, precise and pure with a textural attack and powdery tannins, segueing into a penetrating, mineral finish. It will offer a broad drinking window. This multidimensional wine should turn out very well after the élevages and for the 10 to 20 years to come.

Drink 2024 - 2044

About this wine

Chinon

Chinon

Chinon is an important Cabernet Franc appellation that, at around 2,500 hectares, represents a slightly larger zone than its neighbour Bourgueil. Part of the appellation possesses light, sandy gravel soils to give an easy drinking style, while the remainder is blessed with a tuffeau subsoil from which the wines draw a finer structure and longevity. Neither style approaches the fullness of Bourgueil.
