Domaine de la Haute Olive 2005 Chinon "Le Chêne Vert"

Le Chêne Vert is a name well-known to lovers of Chinon, though few realize that this is not, in fact, a monopole of Domaine Charles Joguet. The one other vigneron who shares a single hectare of this extraordinary vineyard is Bruno Sourdais. His parcel is on the southwest-facing hillside, on millarge, where the average vine age is 40+ years. This Chinon is fermented in concrete and is aged for one year in barrique.
