✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the steep, granite-terraced slopes of the Saint-Joseph appellation on the right bank of the Rhône River, M. Chapoutier's 'Deschants' Rouge is a masterful expression of cool-climate Syrah. Historically, the wines of this region were highly prized by French royalty and were famously celebrated as 'Vin de Mauves' in Victor Hugo's classic novel, Les Misérables. The name 'Deschants' pays homage to the historic hillside songs of the vineyard workers. Grown on decomposed granite soils, this wine is crafted with traditional vinification techniques and aged for 12 to 18 months in a combination of oak barrels and vats. This careful maturation preserves the vibrant, crunchy dark fruit profile while allowing the signature Northern Rhône notes of cracked black pepper, violets, and smoky minerality to shine through with elegant structure.
🍾 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.
