Eric Asimov: In Chinon, a wine value off the beaten path - International Herald Tribune

Here's an urbane, friendly article from the Herald Tribune about the wines of Chinon.Eric Asimov: In Chinon, a wine value off the beaten path - International Herald Tribune Good to see Wilfrid Rousse's "Les Puys" (which we stock in the 2004 vintage - newer vintages travelling) getting more than a look-in, pipped into 3rd by a bottle from Nicolas Grosbois, who was such an amiable host to us when we travelled to the Salon des Vins de Loire last year. Give a Loire red a home, go on. By the way, we have a few cases of a terrific Loire Malbec, "Le Poira" from Guy Allion, for €12.50. I really only got it in for me, but the public seems to be giving it the thumbs up.
