In the mouth
The palate displays fine texture and firm tannins with a muscular structure, yet balanced by an underlying suavity. The wine has presence without aggression, with a mineral thread running throughout.
On the nose
The bouquet reveals graphite and pencil lead minerality alongside dark cassis fruit. Intense yet composed, with layered aromatic complexity that develops in the glass.
On the eye
Deep, dark garnet robe with an almost black core.
Breeding
13 months in oak barrels
This wine pairs admirably with roasted duck, game in sauce, or a classic bavette à l'échalote. Its structure and freshness make it equally suited to contemplative drinking. Cellaring potential of 8–12 years for those so inclined.

DOMAINE PHILIPPE ALLIET
Established at Cravant-les-Coteaux in the heart of the Chinon appellation, Domaine Philippe Alliet farms 17 hectares of Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc across clay-limestone, clay-siliceous and gravelly soils on south-facing slopes. Philippe Alliet, third generation of the family, took over in 1978 and forged a quietly influential style through the 1990s; his son Pierre joined him in 2005, strengthening a lineage built on precision rather than fashion. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the rigour of its approach — biodynamic practices followed without the pursuit of certification — and for the clarity with which its wines articulate the distinct facets of the Loire terroir. A reliable address for those who want Chinon as it truly is.
