✨ Tekniske specifikationer
M. Chapoutier's Châteauneuf-du-Pape 'La Bernardine' Blanc is a masterful expression of the southern Rhône's white winemaking heritage. Named in homage to the historic monastic influence in the region, this wine is crafted primarily from Grenache Blanc grown on the iconic terroir of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, characterized by sandy-clay soils and heat-retaining quartz river stones known as 'galets roulés'. To preserve the delicate, fresh aromatics of the grape, Chapoutier vinifies and ages this cuvée entirely in stainless steel tanks, avoiding oak contact. This traditional, low-intervention approach coaxes out a beautifully textured palate defined by white peach, acacia blossoms, and a distinctive mineral tension that reflects the sun-drenched, wind-swept terraces of the Rhône.
🍾 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.
