Tasting notes

The 2022 Domaine Philippe Alliet Chinon Vieilles Vignes displays a deep red hue with violet reflections. The bouquet is expressive, marked by aromas of raspberries, cassis, and dark wild berries, nuanced with notes of licorice, spice, and delicate floral undertones. On the palate, it is medium-bodied yet generous, with a seamless texture, fine-grained and powdery tannins, and remarkable balance. The concentration from old vines and meticulous ageing adds depth and complexity, leading to a long, persistent, and ethereal finish.

More About The Winery

Since 1985, Domaine Philippe Alliet has set the benchmark for Cabernet Franc in Chinon. Now run with son Pierre, the estate farms 19ha organically, across gravel, limestone, and tuffeau soils that bring depth and precision to the wines.

With low yields, native yeasts, and minimal oak, Alliet crafts pure, vibrant, age-worthy wines. Highlights include the concentrated Vieilles Vignes, structured L’Huisserie, and a rare, elegant Chenin Blanc.
