Planted in 2001, L'Huisserie is a two-hectare site sits (sic) at the end of the Chinon 'coteaux' on clay-flnt. The 2019 is just a gorgeous offering. A rich, creamy mouthful of ripe cabernet Franc. It's a little closed in terms of aroma but it's all in there just waiting to blossom - excellent concentration of fruit and density without heaviness - a mid-weight classic. This wine has a Concorde-like drive that keeps it going and going and carries the scent in waves long after you've tasted. - Rebecca Gibb MW August 2022re prepared to wait for it to open up. Long, scented, lengthy finish." Rebecca Gibb MW.
