2014 Chinon Clos d`Isore, Jean-Maurice Raffault

"Raffault's modern, very intense and always powerful wines are based on fully ripe grapes and made in a silky-textured, round and juicy style with firm tannins and terroir-driven freshness. The quality is very reliable and always excellent. You can drink them young, but as the world-class 1989 Les Picasses demonstrates impressively, they don't just age extremely well but gain in class and expression also."  Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate, Aug 2021
