Description
Sparkling White
Brut Nature
France, ABV 9.5%, 75cl
Biodynamic
In a Nutshell:
Biodynamic sparkling Viognier - light, bone-dry and full of character.
The Lowdown:
This isn't your run-of-the-mill sparkling wine. It's a biodynamic Viognier made by one of the Rhônes leading names, Michel Chapoutier, using the Méthode Ancestrale - an older, gentler approach to sparkling production. There's no dosage, no added pressure, just a light mousse and a bracingly dry finish. Early-picked fruit brings subtle citrus and floral notes, with a yeasty, savoury edge adding complexity. Its light-bodied, chalky in texture, and only 9.5% ABV. Sourced entirely from Chapoutier's own estate, it stands apart for its clarity, precision and distinctive style. Not your usual glass of fizz, and all the more interesting for it.
The Producer:
Indisputably one of the Rhône's greats, M. Chapoutier boasts a rich history dating back to 1808 in Tain l'Hermitage. The estate's holdings are impressive, spanning the length of the Rhône and beyond, even reaching Australia. Yet, it's the arrival of Michel Chapoutier in 1990 that marks a turning point. His championing of biodynamic viticulture, coupled with exceptional vineyard sites, catapulted Chapoutier back to the top tier of Rhône producers. Their commitment to natural practices is absolute - no herbicides or pesticides, and a belief in biodiversity within the vineyards. Interestingly, their labels feature Braille since the mid-1990s. Today, they own Europe's largest biodynamic vineyard and create some of the Rhône's most iconic wines. Driven by Michel's energy, Chapoutier continues to acquire prime vineyards, cementing their status as a leader in the region.
When to Drink:
A good match for sashimi, soft cheeses or savoury pastries - lighter dishes that suit its delicacy and brisk dryness.
