Couly-Dutheil Chinon Clos de l’Echo
£38.99
Clos de l’Echo is the flagship vineyard of Couly-Dutheil, located on the right bank of the Vienne River near the Château de Chinon.
The vines, averaging over 50 years old, grow on clay-limestone soils that give the wine its remarkable depth and structure. Grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, followed by a long maceration to extract colour and tannin.
The wine is aged for 18 to 24 months in French oak barrels, part new and part used, to refine texture and integrate subtle oak complexity without dominating the fruit.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby in colour, this Chinon reveals an intense bouquet of blackcurrant, cherry, and violet, layered with notes of graphite, tobacco, and cedar. On the palate, it is full-bodied and elegant, with firm yet polished tannins and a long, mineral-driven finish. The balance between ripe fruit, earthy undertones, and refined acidity gives this wine a classic Loire Valley personality with impressive ageing potential.
Food Pairings
Ideal with roast lamb, duck breast, venison, or mature goat cheese. Its earthy and savoury character also makes it a superb match for mushroom-based dishes.
