WINE DESCRIPTION
M. Chapoutier Luberon La Ciboise Blanc is a delightful white wine produced by the renowned winemaker Michel Chapoutier. The wine comes from the Luberon appellation, located in the southeastern region of France. The vineyards are situated on hillsides with clay and limestone soils, which impart a unique character to the wine. The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully selected to ensure only the best fruit is used. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and fruitiness of the wine. The resulting wine is crisp and refreshing, with aromas of citrus and white flowers, and a lively acidity that makes it a perfect match for seafood and salads.

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.CUSTOMER RATING
