M. Chapoutier

The Chapoutier Belleruche Rose is deep in color and rich on the palate; satisfying (as rich as many red wines); crisp and lively in the finish.

The M Chapoutier Bila-Haut is a sophisticated red from this part of France; ripe and round, yet polished and fine; some dried herbs in the finish.

The Chapoutier Bellearuche Blanc exhibits the ripe fruit and savory spice often seen in a quality Cotes du Rhone; nice weight on the palate.
