✨ Tekniske specifikationer
M. Chapoutier's interpretation of the Côte-Rôtie appellation pays homage to the dramatic, terraced slopes of the northern Rhône, famously divided into the Côte Brune and Côte Blonde. Local legend tells of a medieval lord, the Seigneur de Maugiron, who gifted these two distinct hillsides to his brunette and blonde daughters, reflecting the dark, iron-rich schist of the former and the pale, granite-and-limestone soils of the latter. While the name 'Brune et Blonde' is a classic reference to this terroir division, Chapoutier's Côte-Rôtie wines, such as 'Les Bécasses', beautifully bridge these two worlds. Adhering to biodynamic principles and low-intervention winemaking, Chapoutier typically crafts these wines from 100% Syrah, showcasing a brilliant tension between the masculine structure of the Brune soils and the feminine, floral elegance of the Blonde soils, resulting in a wine of profound depth, smoky minerality, and vibrant black fruit.
🍾 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.
