“This product is exceptional. Is it really less than 20 euros? It smells like opening an old-fashioned school supply bag… the scent of pencil lead and wood shavings, pencil erasers, cracked marbles, and cold little fingers. It’s delicate, but not too much so. Wild red berries. Freshness, soothing the throat. The tannins glide—slender and taut—through the fruit’s radiance, like mycorrhizal roots weaving silent networks of filaments from the red sky to the dark earth. This wine is truly magnificent.” (Jancis Robinson 2023)

About the wine:
This Chénas combines well-integrated black fruit with herbaceous notes. Ruby in color, this wine offers a fragrant nose of Alpine strawberry, cranberry, Boysenberry, dried oak, black raspberry, violet, and forest floor. The palate is supple, with expressive notes of black tea on the mid-palate, leading into a long finish. This wine is concentrated on the nose and complex.

Well, that takes a bit more maturity! A light, non-tannic wine—pretty average. Gabriel
