BOLD & REFINED

Tasting Note: On the nose, powerful aromas of ripe black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant) mingle with notes of freshly roasted coffee, undergrowth, tobacco leaf and a wisp of smoke. The palate is generous and silky, with broad, supple tannins carrying waves of dark berry compote, cocoa and toasted oak. A bright acidity bring freshness and length to the lingering finish.
Decant for 45–60 minutes.

Vibe: A confident, characterful Chinon built for serious food moments—think robust game dishes or a refined steak dinner. It’s a wine that balances power and elegance without artifice.
