Product Highlights

Full Product Description

Maison M. Chapoutier Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc Belleruche 2023 is a fresh and elegant French white wine from the Côtes-du-Rhône appellation in the Rhône Valley. Made from a classic Southern Rhône white blend of Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Viognier, Clairette, and Bourboulenc, this wine offers an aromatic, rounded, and refreshing style that is easy to enjoy with food.

The wine shows a bright golden yellow colour and opens with expressive aromas of apricot, fennel, and floral notes such as iris. On the palate, it is complex and elegant, with a rounded texture balanced by freshness, leading to a subtle aniseed finish. The wine is vinified in stainless steel at low temperature and aged for 5 months on fine lees to help preserve its aromatic character and texture.

This is a great choice for customers looking for a versatile French white wine that feels aromatic, food-friendly, and refined without being heavy. Serve it with grilled sardines, sea bream, seafood, shellfish, roast chicken, fresh salads, creamy cheese, vegetable dishes, and light Mediterranean meals.
