Colored like an Alpine Pinot Noir (bright purple), the 2013 Chinon Les Picasses opens with a deep, clear, fresh and intense, well-concentrated and slightly toasty red and black fruit aroma on the nose that is less rich, ripe and deep compared to 2014 but spicy, pure and characterful. The palate is silky, sweet and elegant, perfectly balanced, showing very fine and stimulating, finessed and salty acidity along with remarkably fine tannins. The finish is tight and concentrated and intensely aromatic and floral yet always pure, fine and fresh, with red fruit and fleshy cherry flavors. A great drinking pleasure. This is indeed an excellent wine from a difficult vintage, and it has developed so well after I first encountered it three years ago. To be honest, I love this 2013.
