"This approachable and refreshing Chenin is perfect for a fun and friendly happy hour!"
Produced from rare limestone terroirs on the hillsides of Chinon, this white wine combines rich fruitiness, crispness, and minerality. A white Chinon that dares to create a surprising harmony between roundness, liveliness, fullness, and freshness.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though a bit more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Arnaud, who has been at the helm for several vintages now, is now solely in charge. The Clos-de-l’Olive and the Clos-de-l’Écho—the winery’s two flagship wines—are age-worthy wines that best express their terroir: the former with depth, and the latter with power. Don’t overlook the “simple” Chinon René-Couly—a delightful wine that offers immediate pleasure.

About the estate:
The Couly-Dutheil estate was founded in 1921 by Baptiste Dutheil; today it is run by Jacques Couly-Dutheil and his son Arnaud. With vineyards spanning nearly 94 hectares—including the prestigious Clos de l’Écho and Clos de l’Olive—a modern winery carved into the rock, and impressive 10th-century cellars located beneath the Château de Chinon, it is an integral part of the Chinon wine-growing landscape. A must-visit destination.
