Chateau de Coulaine Chinon 2021
$40.00
Cooler than the 2020 with vibrant red fruits, blackberry and violets. Sleek, streamlined and supple, with terrific energy and freshness. Gentle tannins and a highly elevated finish. Lovely, easy drinking Chinon. Waters Wine Co
The 2021 Chinon from Château de Coulaine is young, juicy and fresh. It has supple creamy red fruit flavours, a gentle clasp of tannins and mouthwatering acidity that is commonly sen in the 2021 vintage. Ready for drinking now for its fresh fruity appeal. Serve slightly chilled. Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, June 2022.
Mostly from younger vines up to about 20 yo coming from slopes and on the plateau close to the chateau. This wine is vinified in large old cement tanks using indigenous yeast and aged in a combination of large old oak and cement tanks. Excellent depth of colour and notably deeper and richer in 2020 while still retaining freshness and balance. A real ‘vin de soif’ giving the extravagant raspberry perfume and thirst quenching freshness that Chinon is so well known for. Very fresh, very moreish. Importer’s Notes
