Domaine Couly-Dutheil are based in the town of Chinon, at the heart of the appellation. The family have only been in the wine-making business since 1921, which can seem quite short in this part of the world. But their reputation is extending far and wide; they have some extremely fine vineyards and produce some fabulous wine. The Gravieres bottling lives up to its name, amply expressing the gravelly character of the soils it is named after, with the classic black fruit tang of Cabernet Franc. (NT 15/09/17)
