Since January 217, Jean, son of Etienne and Pascele, has been at the helm of the estate: "Château de Coulaine has several cuvées worthy of interest, the first of which, called Château de Coulaine, is already an excellent wine. Cuvée Les Picasses is very explosive, broad and fruity: it plays on the gourmet register.Clos de Turpenay is another cuvée from Château de Coulaine. A finer wine, with notes of spices (pepper and cloves). La Diablesse is the most virile and animal of all cuvées from château de Coulaine.

The Chinon from Château de Coulaine is superb: long, complex, fat, it's a superb organic gourmet wine.
