Tasting Note

Chante-Alouette is a beautiful example of a Hermitage wine. Brilliant, green gold in colour with complex and subtle nose, aromas of quince, walnut, honey, ginger, acacia with a hint of linden-tree. On the palate it is pronounced with great balance and structure, with long finish with notes of almond.

Product Notes

M. Chapoutier Hermitage Chante-Alouette is a luscious and complex white wine that truly embodies the essence of the Hermitage terroir. It is made from 100% Marsanne grapes that are hand-harvested, carefully sorted, and fermented using indigenous yeasts. On the nose, this wine presents aromas of ripe peaches, honey, and hazelnuts, coupled with floral notes of acacia and honeysuckle. The palate is rich and full-bodied, showcasing flavors of peach, apricot, and baked apple, along with a hint of vanilla. The wine is aged for 12 months in oak barrels before being bottled. M. Chapoutier Hermitage Chante-Alouette is a perfect accompaniment to poultry, seafood, and creamy cheeses.

About the Winery

M. Chapoutier

Maison M Chapoutier is an attractive French winery that emphasises the terroirs where the fruits are cultivated. This label's history dates back to 1808, when the area for establishing it was created in L'Hermitage in Tain. The ownership of this House changed over the next few years, before it finally came under the control of Rodolphe Delepine in 1883. In 1897, Marius Chapoutier joined hands with Delepine to establish the company, Delepine et Chapoutier. The wines made by this company were of top-notch quality. They began to export these wines to countries like Germany, Netherlands and Switzerland.
