Philippe Alliet, Chinon Rouge, Touraine, Loire, France, 2023

Producer Profile

We are thrilled to work with Philippe Alliet, one of the icons of the Loire Valley.

It’s a real privilege to be able to source these highly sought after wines, which originate from his small 17 hectares estate in Cravant-les-Côteaux, the location of some of the finest Cabernet Franc vineyards in the Loire. Inspired by his love for top Bordeaux, Philippe’s goal is to make wines that share the same concentration, density and power using low yields, optimally ripe fruit and full destemming of the grapes. All of his cuvées show great purity and balance and we are convinced that they have the ability to age for a decade or more.

Viticulture

The vineyards have soils consisting of gravel and limestone. The grapes are manually harvested to ensure they arrive in the winery as healthy as possible.
