Located in Odenas (Rhône), the Domaine de la Chaize extends over 250 hectares, including 99 hectares of vines, which makes it the largest property in one piece in Beaujolais cru. Today, the Château is the emblem of the most prestigious Beaujolais Cru estate.
This single-parcel cuvée comes from vines nestled on the western slope of Mont Brouilly. This Côte-de-Brouilly cru stands out for the uniqueness of its soil: the parcel, with slopes ranging from moderate to steep, features a highly porous surface soil with a high sand content, encouraging deep root penetration. It is an exceptionally high-quality terroir, dominated by pink sands derived from granite. For more info, visit Château de la Chaize website.

]]> Casas del Bosque Private Reserve La Trampa https://vinumlector.com/our-wine/chile/aconcaqua/casablanca/casas-del-bosque-private-reserve-la-trampa/ Mon, 25 May 2026 07:29:02 +0000 https://vinumlector.com/?post_type=product&p=10606
The origin of “La Trampa” dates back to the early 2000’s, when the dream of the “Great Chilean Cool - Climate Red” began to take shape through an innovative proposal of planting low-yielding Syrah on granitic soils at the top of the hills. Later, advances in topography and knowledge of the vineyards led the team to plant Malbec in the same soils and in another part of the hill facing east, where the best Pinot Noir were already cultivated.
Over the years, experience showed that complementing our Syrah with Malbec and, later, Pinot Noir would give rise to this great wine, achieving a deep finesse and elegance like no other blend from a cold climate.
