Robert Parker
"One of the estate's iconic vintages, elegant and harmonious."
"Le Clos de Coulaine 2021 has a lively and delicate bouquet with aromas of lemon oil, herbs, sage, spring flowers, and white flowers mingled with notes of lemon oil. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, lively and fragrant, the wine is smooth, consistent and complete. It is an elegant interpretation of this historic Savennières terroir." (Robert Parker 2024).

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2024 guide) 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
This 45-hectare vineyard, 80% of which is planted with Chenin, produces all styles of white wine. René makes the wine, while his older brother Christophe works in the vineyards. They don't use organic methods, but the soil is worked "their way." The same care prevails in the cellar, with a variety of vats of all kinds (stainless steel, cement, cylindrical, underground, 30 hl wooden vats by Stockinger, etc.), suitable for crafting nuanced and complex wines. Sweet wines are the estate's great strength, as is the Savennières series (13 hectares), which is impeccably balanced. The small rosé and red cuvées are a notch below, and the whites tasted this year are too inconsistent to retain the third BD rating.

Vinous
Wine rated (2024 guide) 93/100
About wine:
The 2021 Savennières Clos de Coulaine reflects the low yields caused by frost. There is just enough flesh in the mid-palate, thanks to 18 months spent on the lees, joined by a firm line of acidity and minerality, giving structure and length. It takes flight on the finish with a touch of spice and floral and flinty characters.

A flat, disappointing wine. Perhaps a bad bottle?
