Les Varennes du Grand Clos 1994

Les Varennes du Grand Clos (Chinon red wine) |

Tasting notes

Some very rare bottles were marketed, although it was quickly decided that the vintage, very average, was not up to our expectations in terms of quality. We therefore withdrew it from sale and distilled the entire cuvée.

Comment on the vintage and the
1994 harvest

Frost attacked 50% of the vines, in addition to a rainswept September…
Rot spread across the vines that had resisted, and caused losses to the tune of around 75%: harvesting, which started on 10 October, proved difficult, with very average results. |
