Description
Belleruche translates to "beautiful beehive" in French, a name inspired by the bees and hives that thrive in the sustainable vineyards of M. Chapoutier.
Terroir
Planted mainly in stony-marl soils and on clay-limestone slopes, these soils are porous, with a steady and regular water supply. They warm up quickly in the spring and help the grapes to reach perfect maturity.
Vinification
Total destemming followed by a light skin maceration, particularly for the Viognier, and 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. 5 months ageing on the fine lees.
