WINE DESCRIPTION

M. Chapoutier Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Bernardine is a premium wine produced by the renowned winemaker Michel Chapoutier. This wine comes from the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, which is known for its exceptional terroir and ideal growing conditions for Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The vineyards are situated on rocky soils with a mix of sand and clay, which impart unique flavors and aromas to the wine. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including hand-harvesting and aging in oak barrels, resulting in a full-bodied and complex wine with notes of dark fruit, spice, and earthy undertones. This wine is a perfect representation of the classic Châteauneuf-du-Pape style and is a must-try for any wine enthusiast.

ORIGINS

Winery: M. Chapoutier

Region: Rhone

The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.
