Nice! Decanted and enjoyed over 3 days. Nicely balanced leaning towards a leaner style/finish. SS

Lovely fine silky tannins and blackcurrant fruit. Touch of minerality worked beautifully with wagyu beef.

Cassis, mulberry, violets, licorice w a touch of funk. Not as green and has more body and is more concentrated then a typical Chinon.

Underwhelming, unfortunately. Super ripe with not much character. Thin without much of a finish.

Very nice! Smooth, clean beautiful Franc. Mia really likes this (saying maybe the best Chinon she's had). Very balance with none of the off qualities that Franc can have. SS
