Charles Joguet Chinon Les Varennes Du Grand Clos 750ml
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The 2019 Les Varennes du Grand Clos is starting to mellow with an extra year in bottle since I last tasted. It continues to have its soft, welcoming opening, with attractive, pure aromatics: plenty of sweet black fruit and violet alongside a lightly spiced character derived from a small amount of oak. It remains lifted, bright and fresh, with a little pinch of tannins on finish. It continues to exude primary fruit and youthful sass and would benefit from extra time in bottle. At the foot of the gravelly terrace, partly formed by the erosion of the limestone slope, this very special siliceous-clay and silico-limestone terroir is located on the left bank of the Vienne, in Sazilly. These four and a half hectares of vines planted between 1962 and 1976 have an average yield of 40 hl/ha. |
