✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Named after the Latin word for cherry, Cerasinus is M. Chapoutier's tribute to the historic, deeply colored wines of Tavel in the southern Rhone Valley. While officially classified as a rose, Tavel is historically celebrated as a red wine disguised in pink, offering the structure, body, and complexity of a light red. This cuvee is crafted primarily from Grenache and Cinsault, grown on a mosaic of terroirs featuring sandy soils, limestone, and the famous galets roules (rounded quartz stones) that retain heat. M. Chapoutier, a legendary producer committed to biodynamic principles, utilizes cold maceration to extract the wine's signature deep cherry hue, complex red-fruit aromatics, and stony minerality, creating a gastronomic wine with historical roots dating back to the Avignon Popes and Philippe le Bel.
🍾 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.
