Product Description

Overview

Winery: Maison Alain de la Treille

Alain de la Treille Chinon  is 100 percent Cabernet Franc.

Our Chinon, with its bright intense purple colour, offers complex and mineral aromas and finally red fruits scents like blackcurrant and blueberry.

MAISON ALAIN DE LA TREILLE is located in the heart of Loire Valley since 1885. Vineyards owner and winemaker, ALAIN DE LA TREILLE creates diverse and delicate wines on the most prestigious vineyards: Muscadet, Touraine, Vouvray, Sancerre.

Average age of the vines is 20 years old.

Classic red vinification and Maturation in stainless steel vats

Wine was slightly filtered before bottling to ensure wine will remain stable

Pairs with roasted meats, « charcuteries » or any good cheese.

Review:

"Spicy and bright, this is a meaty franc with notes of tobacco and violets. The bottling sulfur might make you sneeze, but that will dissipate with six months and the wine should begin to open up. The tannic grip suggests cellaring it for a few years.”
