Domaine de la Noblaie Description
From a harmonious blend of grapes grown on our clay/limestone terroirs, this Chinon reveals intense scents of red fruits. On the palate it has a delightful silky structure.
This is Chinon full of fruit and immediate pleasure, for happy moments with friends.
It should be drunk while still young.
Daniel Hernandez-Brun for K&D: 92 Points
The 2022 Les Temps Cerises is an approachable and lively Cabernet Franc from Chinon. While Sauvignon Blanc takes center stage in the Loire Valley, it's always nice to Cabernet Franc get its due. This is a dense and inky ruby red in the glass, with an aromatic bouquet of raspberry jam, red and black currant, bell pepper, violet, and cacao. The palate is medium-bodied, with lush bright red fruit notes and good tension balanced by moderate acidity, finishing dry and lifting.
James Suckling: 90 Points
A fruity nose with cherries, crushed raspberries, chocolate and dry spices. Medium body with fine tannins. Silky and juicy with plenty of red fruit character on offer. Cabernet franc. From organically grown grapes.
