About this wine
Château de Coulaine Chinon is a vibrant Loire Valley Cabernet Franc offering fragrant raspberry aromas and irresistible freshness. Sourced from younger vines and crafted with indigenous yeast, this ‘vin de soif’ delivers a bright, juicy palate of red berries with subtle earthy notes and silky tannins. Light-bodied and thirst-quenching, it’s the perfect red for charcuterie, grilled vegetables, or goat cheese. Serve lightly chilled for maximum enjoyment.

Château de Coulaine is a family-owned estate rich in viticultural tradition which has been operating continuously since 1300! In the 19th century the estate came to be one of the most notable in Chinon before phylloxera reduced the holdings to just over 1 hectare of Clos de Turpenay. Since 1988, Etienne de Bonnaventure took over the farming of that 1 hectare assuming all viticulture and winemaking responsibilities and has grown the estate to its current 18 hectares, all situated on Chinon's plateaux. Planted mostly to Cabernet Franc (with a little Chenin blanc making both Chinon blanc and Touraine blanc) particular care is taken to re-plant using selection massale as they have done for generations.

Food pairing suggestions
Food pairing suggestions
Enjoy it best with pork dishes like roast pork, tenderloin, and pork chops. Smoked meats, blue cheese, mushrooms, onion, garlic, tomato, capsicum, and aromatic spices like anise, turmeric, saffron, fennel, and ginger bring out its richness.
It also pairs well with grilled or barbecued lamb, roasted chicken or duck, and cured meats such as salami and prosciutto. Creamy cheeses like brie and camembert, pasta, beans, peas, black pepper, fresh herbs, potatoes, and crusty bread complement the wine perfectly.
