"Delivers mature spice, briar patch, mulled currant and braised fig notes, all matched by bright, mouthwatering acidity. A lingering tobacco note adds extra length. Solid. Drink now through 2011. -JM"

"This shows dense flavors of black fig, black cherry and cassis, yet its fresh acidity gives the wine a vibrant, energetic feel. It's delicious now, and should gain further harmony and complexity with time."

Product Description:

"The Chinon rouge from the property is a case study in the balance between power and elegance, spice and softness, and fat and acidity. Jerome's rouge is produced from a single block called 'Les Chiens-Chiens:' 40-80 year old Cabernet Franc vines. Aged 12 months in 2- and 3-year-old barrels, this Chinon is lovely and perfumed, with tremendous length in the mouth." -Importer; Sustainable Farming
