2020 Phillipe Alliet - Chinon V.V. (750ml)
89-91 Points
"The 2020 Les Vieilles Vignes hails from a gravel-based vineyard of 50 to 80

years old vines. Matured in concrete tank over 18 months, the result is all

black cherry, blackcurrant and a hint of piquancy. It's round and shimmies

around your mouth. Excellent, resolved, gravelly tannins coat the palate.

All in all, it's charming. A minor gripe is the touch of alcohol (14.1% alcohol)

that leaves a slight warmth and partly detracts from the finish; otherwise,

it is delightfully handled. The 2019 was perhaps a little better. The 2020 is

a bigger, riper style. Tank sample.
