Wine description

Le Chouchou meets 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 serving temperature as fresh as its aromas, and notes that radiate on the palate evoking 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. The grapes are placed in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Maceration for 3 to 5 days, followed by draining and completion of fermentation at 20°C. As soon as malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine is clarified for a 3-month ageing period 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

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Your questions about our wines

Below you will find some frequently asked questions from our customers about our products. Visit our FAQ for more information.

Which dishes should I pair with this wine?

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.

How long can I keep this wine?

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.

What is the alcohol content of this wine?

The alcohol content (% vol.) varies by cuvée and vintage; it is listed in the product’s technical data sheet, below the description.

Is this wine dry or sweet? What is its residual sugar content?

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.

Which grape varieties make up this wine, and which terroir does it come from?

The grape varieties, appellation and terroir of origin are indicated in this product’s technical data sheet.

Does this wine contain sulphites?

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.

Is this wine vegan?

Many Gérard Bertrand cuvées are vegan certified (100% plant-based fining agents, no products of animal origin). This wine’s vegan status is indicated in its certifications on the product page.

Are your wines certified organic and/or biodynamic?

A large proportion of our production is certified Organic Agriculture and/or Biodynamic (Demeter). The certifications applicable to this cuvée are listed on its product page under “Certifications”.

What serving temperature do you recommend?

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.

Should this wine be decanted before tasting?

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.

Is this wine available in a gift box?

Yes, several cuvées are available in gift boxes, individually or as an assortment. See the “Gift Boxes” section of the shop or the product page to view the available options.

Which bottle sizes do you offer (cl, Magnum...)?

Depending on the cuvée: 37.5 cl (half-bottle), 75 cl (standard size), 150 cl (Magnum), and sometimes larger sizes. The size(s) available for this product are indicated on its product page.

Do you offer alcohol-free or de-alcoholised wines?

We do not produce dealcoholised wine. However, our range offers wines with lower alcohol content: So'Vive (naturally low-alcohol organic white wine), Le Chouchou (light red wine) and Cote des Roses Red Léger. The precise alcohol content of each cuvée is indicated on its product sheet.
