2022 Chinon, Clos du Chêne Vert, Domaine Charles Joguet

This parcel is quintessential Chinon: at the top of the hill overlooking the Loire river, its flood plains, and the charming eponymous town. It is named after the huge and statuesque oak tree that grows at its edge. Its excellent position affords it good ripening and drainage. The soil here is clay and sandstone, and produces a wine with a pretty red fruit structure, and some distinctively spicy notes. Its ripeness and freshness chime in harmony. The wine has a lighter frame than that of the Dioterie, and a long, elegant finish.
