✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Michel Chapoutier's venture into the rugged, sun-drenched Roussillon led to the revitalization of Domaine de Bila-Haut, an ancient estate once situated on the historic border between the Kingdom of France and Aragon. Les Vignes de Bila-Haut Red is a masterful expression of this wild, wind-swept terroir, crafted from a classic blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Carignan. Grown on steep slopes of black and brown schist, gneiss, and limestone, the vines endure intense Mediterranean heat tempered by the cooling Tramontane wind. To preserve the vibrant, dark fruit flavors and the distinct stony minerality of the soil, the wine is vinified and aged primarily in concrete and stainless steel tanks. This approach yields a wine rich in wild herb aromas, ripe blackberries, and a touch of smoky black pepper, embodying the rugged spirit of the ancient Roussillon landscape.
🍾 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.
