Note di degustazione
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.

More powerful and full-bodied wine from Le Picasses than 2015. A stunner. Fresh and complex, but a more muscular side of Chinon. Dark ruby in color. Expressive nose full of blackberry, black olive, spice and pepper. On the palate, rich, dark, with more olive and some tobacco on the finish. Amazing value. (JW)
