Chateau de Coulaine, Bonnaventure, Chinon 2022
$32.00Read moreChâteau de Coulaine is a family-owned estate operating continuously since 1300! Since 1988, the Bonnaventure family has run the viticulture and winemaking responsibilities and has grown the estate to its current 22 acres on Chinon’s plateaux. The vineyards are certified organic, all the grapes are hand-harvested, and vinification follows a non-interventionalist path. Coulaine’s low yields (around 35 hl/ha) result in a deeply concentrated, savory, and succulent expression of Cabernet Franc.
This wine is from sandstone and yellow limestone soils that leave rich aromas with blackberry, chocolate, cherry, and wild herbs that show an impressive depth and energy with a little touch of fresh flowers.
