Producer

Producer

The Domaine de Bila-Haut vineyard stretches across clay-limestone soils, ideal for growing Grenache and Syrah grapes. Its location in Latour de France, in the heart of the Côtes du Roussillon, allows the vines to benefit from optimal sunshine and natural ventilation, preserving the health of the grapes. The Mediterranean climate, with its hot, dry summers, promotes perfect fruit ripening, while the cool nights retain the acidity necessary for balanced wines. The diversity of terroirs within the estate contributes to the richness and complexity of the wines produced.

Owner and history

Mr. Chapoutier, an iconic figure in French wine, took over the family estate and transformed Domaine de Bila-Haut into a place of viticultural excellence. His innovative vision and respect for the terroir have propelled his wines to the pinnacle of excellence. Mr. Chapoutier is also known for his commitment to sustainable agriculture and his dedication to preserving traditional winemaking techniques. Under his leadership, the estate has established itself as a benchmark in the region, blending tradition and modernity to produce wines of exceptional quality.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Domaine de Bila-Haut is meticulously orchestrated to preserve the integrity of the grapes. After hand-harvesting, the bunches are sorted and destemmed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, promoting the expression of fruity aromas. Partial aging in oak barrels adds a touch of complexity without masking the terroir. This painstaking process, combined with a sustainable approach, guarantees wines that reflect the unique character of their origin while offering exceptional drinkability.

The team's opinion

A full-bodied and expressive red wine, with notes of black fruit, licorice, and a warm, spicy finish.
