✨ Tekniske specifikationer
M. Chapoutier's 'Belleruche' Blanc is a vibrant testament to the rich winemaking heritage of the Rhône Valley, crafted by a family whose roots in Tain-l'Hermitage trace back to 1808. The name 'Belleruche' translates to 'beautiful beehive,' a poetic nod to the natural harmony and biodiversity found within the Southern Rhône vineyards. This classic Côtes-du-Rhône white is typically a harmonious blend of Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Viognier, Clairette, and Bourboulenc. Sourced from diverse soils of clay, limestone, and alluvial pebbles, the grapes undergo cool fermentation and aging entirely in stainless steel tanks to preserve their crispness and pure fruit expression. The resulting wine is celebrated for its aromas of green apple, apricot, and white blossoms, underpinned by a refreshing mineral streak. Notably, the bottle features Braille on the label, a pioneering Chapoutier tradition established in 1996 to honor Maurice de La Sizeranne, the inventor of abbreviated French Braille.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
M. Chapoutier blev grundlagt i 1808 i Tain-l'Hermitage i Rhônedalen og har siden udviklet sig til et af Frankrigs mest berømte vinhuse. Husets internationale stjernestatus tog for alvor fart, da Michel Chapoutier overtog roret i 1990 med sin kompromisløse vision. Som pioner inden for biodynamisk vindyrkning og minimal intervention i vinkælderen er ejendommen særligt hyldet for sine enkeltmarks-aftapninger, 'sélections parcellaires', der formidler de fineste terroiregenskaber på tværs af Rhône og andre vinregioner. Chapoutier, der siden 1996 ikonisk har haft punktskrift (blindeskrift) på alle etiketter, skaber referencepunkter for druer som Syrah, Marsanne og Grenache i prestigiøse appellationer som Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie og Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
