Philippe Alliet

Chinon · Loire · France
Cabernet Franc, precisely.

One of the historic references of modern Chinon, now led by Pierre Alliet alongside his father Philippe. The domaine farms gravel and tuffeau parcels along the Vienne.

Lieux-dits like Coteau de Noiré and Vieilles Vignes show a dense, chiselled Cabernet Franc built on classical standards.
