A flagship expression of Chinon, Couly-Dutheil’s Clos de l'Écho is a 100% Cabernet Franc sourced from a historic walled vineyard just below the Château de Chinon. This wine offers deep aromas of ripe black cherry, cassis, and graphite, layered with hints of violets, tobacco, and subtle earthy spice. On the palate, it is structured and elegant, with fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity supporting its generous fruit core. A long, mineral-driven finish reflects the vineyard’s limestone-rich soils. Age-worthy and refined, it pairs beautifully with roast lamb, duck breast, or mushroom-based dishes.
