Producer

Producer

The Château La Clotte vineyard stretches across well-exposed slopes, where the clay-limestone soils play a fundamental role in the quality of the grapes. The diversity of the plots allows for a varied expression of the grape varieties, contributing to the complexity of the wines. The vines, some several decades old, are cultivated with care to promote optimal ripeness. The region's temperate climate, with hot summers and mild winters, fosters a harmonious development of aromas and tannins, essential for crafting exceptional wines.

Owner and history

Château La Clotte is currently managed by a passionate family dedicated to preserving the estate's history and identity. Their commitment to excellence is reflected in their thoughtful viticultural choices and meticulous attention to every stage of production. The owners, passionate about wine and terroir, work closely with oenologists to explore the nuances of their vineyard plots and continuously improve the quality of their wines. This passion and commitment are evident in every bottle, offering wine lovers an authentic experience.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Château La Clotte respects tradition while incorporating modern techniques. The grapes are harvested by hand, allowing for rigorous selection. After delicate destemming, the grapes are fermented in temperature-controlled tanks to preserve their aromas. Aging takes place in oak barrels, some of which are new, to add a touch of complexity without masking the fruit. This meticulous process guarantees a balanced wine, where each element finds its place in perfect harmony.
