    Description Chinon "Tradition"

    Estate

    Domain Philippe Alliet is a renowned estate known for its high-quality wines made from Cabernet Franc. Located within the famous Loire wine region, it practices traditional and environmentally respectful winemaking. The property benefits from a family heritage passed down through generations. It received a score of 90 from the Revue Vin de France for its exceptional finesse. The passion for expressing the terroir is evident in every bottle produced.

    Vineyard

    The Touraine vineyard is famous for its clay-limestone soils that favor Cabernet Franc cultivation. The vineyard's exposure and altitude contribute to optimal grape ripening. The vines benefit from generous sunshine and a moderate oceanic climate. Sustainable viticulture practices are employed to preserve local biodiversity. The region provides an ideal terroir for the expression of the flagship grape variety, Cabernet Franc.

    Wine

    This Chinon 2022 displays an intense ruby color. Aromas include red fruits, pepper, and subtle vegetal notes. On the palate, it offers a structured body with a velvety texture and an elegant finish. The wine is well-balanced with a notable aromatic persistence. It perfectly reflects the Loire terroir style and the domaine's craftsmanship.

    Vintage

    The 2022 vintage was characterized by balanced weather conditions, allowing for optimal grape ripeness. Harvesting was done under favorable conditions, ensuring concentrated aromas. This vintage confirms Domaine Philippe Alliet's reputation for delivering elegantly refined wines. The deep color suggests good aging potential while remaining approachable in its youth.

    Winemaking & Aging

    The vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve fresh aromatics. Alcoholic fermentation lasts several weeks, with gentle remontage to extract color and tannins. Aging is performed in stainless steel or oak casks for a few months to refine structure. The aim is to highlight fruit purity while ensuring good aging capacity. No fining or excessive filtering is used to maintain authenticity.
