94ROBERT PARKER’S WINE ADVOCATE
The 2017 Chinon Clos de la Dioterie is from a northeast-facing monopole right next to the winery overlooking the Varennes du Grand Clos. This historic clos of just over two hectares hosts low-yielding 70- to 80-year-old vines rooting deep in a clayey, highly calcareous soils. The nose is deep, intense and perfectly ripe as well as elegant and seamless, and it exhibits ripe, dark berry aromas and remarkably fine limestone finesse with bloody meat notes. On the palate, this is a thoroughly vital red with great finesse and intensity and all the tributes you may expect from an icon wine of the appellation. The finish is vital, fresh, lemony, salty and highly stimulating if not mouthwatering but also stringent and tensioned, with perfect fruit ripeness and a gorgeous tannin/acidity structure. Impressive. Tasted in June 2021.
