The M. Chapoutier family is, of course, well-known in the region and boasts some of the finest vineyards in the area. This white wine from the Cotes du Luberon uses the finest white grape varieties: Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Ugni Blanc, and Vermentino, all grown in an old vineyard at an altitude of 1,100 meters. The altitude is crucial for the refreshing style of this wine; the summers are very warm and long, causing the grapes to ripen very quickly. To ensure this process is even, M. Chapoutier needs plenty of coolness. The grapes receive this from the fresh breeze blowing through the vineyards and from the nighttime temperature. Nighttime temperatures drop significantly, allowing the grapes to retain plenty of freshness and natural acidity.

La Ciboise a beautiful Luberon

It all begins in Michel Chapoutier's vineyards, which are vine-aged and currently yielding a top harvest. These are harvested mechanically in the early morning, while the grapes are still dormant, as this is the perfect time. This prevents damage to the bunches, and the grapes retain their natural freshness, which we taste in this white La Ciboise Luberon. When the grapes arrive at Chapoutier's, they are placed on sorting tables to select the best bunches. Because, as we know from Chapoutier wines, only the best is good enough. The entire wine is aged for several months on the lees, making it fuller and more powerful in both aroma and flavor.

The smell and taste of the La Ciboise Luberon from M> Chapoutier

As soon as the bottle is opened, we notice a fresh aroma of white fruit with hints of lemon peel. These aromas continue as we pour, revealing a beautiful light yellow color with green glints. Nosing the glass, we encounter abundant ripe aromas of green apple, exotic fruit, and a touch of white blossom. The palate has a lively note on the tongue, with plenty of richness from the white fruit complemented by a touch of grapefruit. The beautiful, fresh style is accompanied by a creamy mouthfeel, making it very inviting. The finish is ripe with plenty of citrus fruit.
