Domaine Couly-Dutheil

Domaine Couly-Dutheil was founded in 1921 by Baptiste Dutheil, then developed by René Couly. Thanks to the quality of its terroirs, this four-generation family-run business enjoys an undisputed reputation in the Chinon vineyards, producing top-quality AOC Chinon wines.

Of the 2,000 hectares of Chinon vineyards, Domaine Couly-Dutheil alone vinifies almost 120 hectares, 90 of which are directly farmed. The vineyards are spread over three production terroirs: the gravel-sand plains on the banks of the Vienne river, which produce light, fruity thirst-quenching wines; the clay-silica slopes and plateaus, which produce fine, subtle wines; and the clay-limestone hillsides, which produce sumptuous AOC Chinon vins de garde.

Domaine Couly-Dutheil also produces two benchmark Chinon cuvées: Clos de l'Olive and Clos de l'Echo, which will delight lovers of AOC Chinon wines with character.
