Located approximately 20 hectares in the centre of the Véron terroir, west of Chinon, is Domaine de la Roche Honneur. This terroir, at the meeting point of four outstanding red wine appellations in the Loire Valley, has an ancestor-rich history and is tucked away between the Loire and the Vienne rivers.
The domaine made the decision to switch to organic farming in 2009. When the grapes reach the cellar, they are picked at the peak of ripeness and subjected to a meticulous and exacting selection process. This Chinon's grace stems from its meticulousness. Red fruit aromas with hints of flowery, liquorice, and vanilla are present in this wine, which has a nice, smooth, and structured palate.
An unoaked Chinon wine with young berry fruit, supple, chalky tannins, and a refreshing Cabernet flavour on the long finish.
