Chinon Les Picasses 2016 Chateau de Coulaine

Chateau de Coulaine have a history dating back to 1300!  This single vineyard Cabernet Franc is produced from the famed hillside ‘Les Picasses’ from 40+ year old vines grown on clay and yellow limestone.  Aged in large, mainly old, oak barrels to allow the pristine fruit to emerge intact, pure and beautifully defined.  This has real finesse and style with classic crunchy Cabernet Franc character, yet with proper concentration and intensity.
