About the Producer

Château de Campuget was established in 1942 and is a top quality estate near
Nîmes, which is steeped in history. The Château itself was built in 1753 and at the same
time the first vines were planted, prompting the '1753' range of wines which mark this
historic date. Now in the hands of winemaker Franck-Lin Dalle, who is the third
generation of his family to run the estate, the fusion of tradition and progression unites
in the cellars where Franck-Lin deftly crafts wines with integrity, finesse and a wonderful
expression of terroir from a wide range of traditional Rhône varieties. In 2019, Château
de Campuget was certified as Haute Valeur Environmentale, which officially recognises
the environmental performance of winegrowers, including biodiversity conservation,
plant protection strategies, managed fertiliser use and water resource management.

Vineyard and Winery

Costières de Nimes, the easternmost appellation of the Languedoc, is effectively part of
the Rhône since the climate, soil and topography are so similar to those just over the
river in the southern Côtes-du-Rhône vineyards. The relatively uniform soils are marked
by large pebbles on gentle, typically south-facing slopes. Strict canopy management
provides the vines with just the right amount of sun and shade to produce healthy and
balanced fruit. The soils are formed of pebbles with alluvia.

Made from selected grapes from the best vines on the estate, La Sommelière is the
ultimate expression of the Campuget terroir. The wine was traditionally vinified, followed
by maturation in oak barriques for a period of 12 months. Bottled without filtration.
