Jean-Maurice Raffault Le Puy 2019
Red
Chinon, France
7.5
WineSaint
Dark cherry and leather emerge with earthy undertones and subtle spice. The barrel treatment adds depth without overwhelming the fruit's natural elegance. Firm, dusty tannins demand patience. This Chinon needs years to reach its potential. Excellent concentration and mineral backbone suggest rewarding aging. Drink 2027-2040.
