Le Moulin Chapitre Chinon 2020 750 ML

Aromas of red fruit and just a touch of smoke on the nose. In the mouth the wine offers ripe, rounded tannins. The fact the vines are old is evidenced by the concentrated and rich mouthfeel, without however the wine losing the typical freshness that is the true characteristic of Cabernet Franc. The finish is long, fresh and balanced.\n \n Producer Information\n This wine takes its name from an old mill, where the vignerons used to meet twice a year, and then had a talk about the harvest to come and other matter of the vineyard. In old french, "tenir Chapitre" was meaning "hold these meetings". So they had called the place "le Moulin Chapitre". This reminds us that Chinon and the surrounding region, the birthplace of Rabelais, was one of the centers of philosophy, of art and of fine cuisine and wine at the time of the French Renaissance.
