✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Crafted by the legendary Rhône producer M. Chapoutier, Terra d'Or Rouge is a tribute to the sun-drenched terroirs of Provence. The name Terra d'Or, meaning 'Land of Gold,' evokes the luminous, golden light of the region that has long inspired artists and winemakers alike. This red blend, typically composed of classic Mediterranean varieties like Grenache and Syrah, is grown on clay-limestone soils swept by the purifying Mistral wind. Chapoutier employs traditional vinification methods with temperature-controlled fermentation and aging in concrete or stainless steel vats to preserve the vibrant, pure fruit character. The resulting wine beautifully captures the wild, aromatic essence of the local garrigue, showing notes of ripe dark berries, black pepper, and dried herbs.
🍾 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.
