Note di degustazione
The 2019 Côteau de Noiré is such a seductive mouthful of Cabernet Franc with huge density and roundness, yet it remains marvelously elegant. A very complex, barrel-aged style that offers silken texture, black fruit and black olive. It's a little tight and closed at the moment but it's all there - the concentration, the resolved but abundant chalky tannins, and it just needs time to blossom. Fragrant finish.

This single barrel sample of the 2019 Chinon Coteau de Noiré displays incredible depth of color. It is already wonderfully smooth and scented yet has underlying muscle and power. It's slightly oaky at this stage, but since it isn't the final blend, let's be kind here and take a look again later in the year. The source of the fruit is a mid-slope lieu-dit of 2.5 hectares on clay-chalk soils.
