Wine description
Le Chouchou responds to new consumption trends: a tender, light and fresh red wine. It is the ideal alternative that breaks the codes of red wine consumption: a low alcohol content, a tasting temperature as cool as its aromas, and notes that radiate on the palate reminiscent of a basket of fresh fruit. The grapes for this indulgent cuvée come from the high-altitude terroirs of the Cévennes, where the vineyards create exceptional landscapes. Le Chouchou is the ideal companion for all your convivial moments.

Winemaking and ageing
Harvested in the early morning at low temperatures. Grapes are vatted in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Maceration for 3 to 5 days, then the wine is drained off and fermentation is completed at 20°C. As soon as malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine is clarified and aged for 3 months in tank.
Tasting note
This cuvée seduces with its tenderness and silky texture. The colour is ruby with beautiful highlights. The nose reveals subtle aromas of ripe red fruits and floral notes. On the palate, flavours of strawberries and cherries blend with a touch of Syrah spice, with soft, well-integrated tannins.
Storage
Keep away from sunlight and at a constant temperature

Your questions about our wines
Each product page provides a food and wine pairing suggestion suited to the cuvée. Our online tasting assistant can also advise you based on your menu.
The ageing potential depends on the cuvée and vintage — it is specified in this wine's technical sheet. In general, our wines for ageing and fine wines can be kept for more than 10 years, or even over 100 years for our fortified sweet wines, whilst our lighter cuvées, intended to be enjoyed young, are best appreciated within 2 to 3 years of purchase.
The alcohol content (% vol.) varies by cuvée and vintage; it is listed in the product’s technical data sheet, below the description.
The majority of our red, white and rosé wines are dry. Our natural sweet wines (Rivesaltes, Maury...) and certain crémants are sweet or semi-dry. The style (dry/sweet) of this cuvée is specified in its description.
The grape varieties, appellation and terroir of origin are indicated in this product’s technical data sheet.
Like almost all wines, our cuvées contain sulphites (naturally present during fermentation, sometimes added in small quantities as a preservative). Details (“no added sulphites”, level, etc.) are specified on this product’s technical data sheet and on the back label.

As a general rule: 8-10°C for rosés and light whites, 10-12°C for more complex whites, 16-18°C for reds. The most suitable serving temperature for this cuvée is also indicated on its technical sheet.
This depends on the wine and its age, as specified on the technical data sheet where relevant. As a general rule, our powerful age-worthy wines benefit from being decanted 30 minutes to 1 hour before tasting; lighter wines, whites and rosés can be served directly.
