Une Passion is the pride of Clos Chaumont. Made only in the best years and small quantities, like a vintage champagne, Une Passion is a concentrate of the best parcels. The wine is made through integral vinification: as soon as they leave the sorting table, the grapes start the fermentation process directly in open oak barrels which will take 18 to 20 months before the wine is bottled.

This elegant, fruity and medium-bodied red wine is often the result of a blend between Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, sometimes with a touch of Cabernet Franc. Aged for an average of 18 months, the wine embodies all the qualities of a great ‘vin de garde’ (aged 5 to 10 years) but it can be enjoyed younger. Regularly awarded and recommended by international professionals, it was described by R. Parker as “velvety, round and delicious”.
