Tasting Note

L’Huisserie’ is a refined and structured expression of Cabernet Franc from one of Chinon’s most respected producers. Deep garnet in colour, the wine opens with an intense bouquet of black cherry, cassis, graphite, and dried herbs, laced with violet, pencil shavings, and a whisper of smoky cedar. On the palate, it is firm yet polished, with fine-grained tannins and a mouth-watering backbone of acidity. Flavours of ripe blackberry, dark plum, and crushed stones are layered with hints of tobacco leaf, cocoa nib, and black pepper. The finish is long, savoury, and earthy, showcasing both elegance and depth. A powerful but poised Cabernet Franc, built to age gracefully.

About the Winery

Philippe Alliet

Domaine Philippe Alliet is a renowned family-owned winery located in Cravant-les-Côteaux, at the heart of the Chinon appellation in France’s Loire Valley. Founded in the mid-1980s by Philippe and Claude Alliet, the estate has become one of the benchmarks for modern Chinon wines. Philippe inherited old family vineyards and, alongside his wife and later their son Pierre, transformed the domaine with a commitment to low yields, precision viticulture, and meticulous cellar work. Their approach combines traditional Loire Valley sensibility with inspiration from Bordeaux’s structure and longevity.
