M. Chapoutier Belleruche Blanc
AOC Côtes du Rhône, Rhône
Tasting Notes
An expressive wine with aromas of apricot, fennel and floral scents. The wines roundness is a perfect match for its freshness, with a finish reveals subtle notes of aniseed.
Food Pairings
Grilled and roasted white meats. Enjoy with fish, shellfish, and salads. Perfect for picnics with mild creamy cheese and grilled sardines or sea bream “a la plancha” - roasted on an iron skillet.
Winemaking Notes
Harvest is carried out at night by machine to prevent and limit oxidation of the juices and preserve the aromatic components. Total destemming followed by a light skin maceration particularly for the Viognier, gentle pressing. Cold static settling. Alcoholic fermentation at low temperature in stainless steel vats. The wine is protected from oxygen to preserve its aromatic potential and undergoes 5 months ageing on the fine lees.
