{"product_id":"chappaz-grain-cinq-suisse","title":"Chappaz - Grain Cinq - 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eNestled on the steep slopes of the Valais region, the vineyards for this cuvée stretch around Fully, on the right bank of the Rhône. The vines are planted on terraces formed by dry-stone walls, predominantly facing south, benefiting from abundant sunshine and significant temperature variations. The soils, derived from moraines and granite scree, offer natural drainage and moderate water stress, promoting slow and complete ripening of the grapes. This mountain vineyard landscape, typical of the Valais, imparts to the wine its precise, taut character, deeply marked by its Alpine origins.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe grapes for Grain Cinq are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness, then gently pressed before careful settling. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, primarily in tanks and barrels, to preserve the purity of the fruit while adding complexity. Aging continues on fine lees for several months, with moderate stirring depending on the vintage. The wine is then blended and bottled at the estate after gentle clarification, without seeking over-extraction or pronounced oak influence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003estone fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003eripe citrus\u003c\/strong\u003e , and \u003cstrong\u003eexotic fruits\u003c\/strong\u003e , enhanced by delicate \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches, subtle \u003cstrong\u003espicy\u003c\/strong\u003e nuances, and a pronounced \u003cstrong\u003eminerality\u003c\/strong\u003e reminiscent of sun-baked rock.
