Since Jérôme Billard came back in 2003 after working in Bordeaux, California and New Zealand, he has made the 24 hectare Domaine de la Noblaie among the top Chinon estates. The domaine is now organic, and a new winery has been built incorporating modern technology along with ancient limestone caves where wine was once made, and everything is harvested by hand. Les Temps des Cerises is a song by Yves Montand. This is Noblaie's easy-drinking cuvée printemps with the emphasis very much on the fruit. It is a blend of grapes from the domaine's various parcels. The 2020 has strong red fruit aromas with raspberry to the fore. The tannins are soft and this is a lovely fresh young wine. Serve slightly chilled, especially in the summer.
