 Le Vignoble d’Elian is the entry into the cuvées de garde of the estate, and in this case for me it is where Chinon meets Crozes-Hermitage. Grown on white clay soils with sandy deposits of iron and manganese, the 40-year-old Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Syrah bring some volume, giving a firm yet sleek tannic structure. The addition of young vines from Clos Baquey (a superb plot on limestone scree) brings a sweetness to the mid-palate. De-stemmed, the grapes are macerated for 2 to 3 weeks in concrete vat with very soft extractions, then aged separately for a minimum of 18 months in old Provençal foudres. Keep it 5 to 8 years. 50% cabernet franc, 30% merlot, 20% syrah. 
  • Deep Ruby
  • Sun warmed blackberries, scents of asphalt and baking spice mingle with an iron mineral note on the nose
  • Nice and round in the mouth, the acid persists and the tannins have started to unravel and gain a slightly coarser texture. Touch of smoky and meaty savoriness with the fruit and mineral drenched palate. The finish remains fairly persistent and segues into a dry herbal note and a little black tea at the tail end.
  • Braised Short Rib
  • Peking Duck
  • Chicken Teriyaki
