M. Chapoutier Bila-Haut Banyuls Vin Doux Naturel Blanc 1999 (500ml)
It was in Latour de France that M.Chapoutier chose to set up his domain. The vines of Bila-Haut and Occultum Lapidem were the first expressions of this terroir. The story continued near a little village called Lesquerde. Steep, craggy limestone, arid soil, battered by the tramontane wind…
Vins Doux Naturels are sweet wines. Vinified in a traditional way, like still wines, its fermentation is stopped in progress by adding alcohol. By stopping the alcoholic fermentation, some of the sugar is not converted into alcohol, obtaining wines that are both alcoholic and naturally sweet.
