Description

A complex and silky Châteauneuf-du-Pape red wine

The estate

Established since 1808 in Tain-L'Hermitage, M. Chapoutier today embodies the elite of Rhône Valley wines.

Winemaker and wine merchant, Michel Chapoutier has successfully brought this family-owned business to the very top. The wines by Maison Chapoutier are renowned by the finest connoisseurs from all around the world for their refinement and high quality. A man of many talents, Michel Chapoutier holds the world record for 100/100 scores awarded by the American critic, Robert Parker. Mathilde, Michel Chapoutier's daughter, has taken over the running of this iconic house, which has over 350 hectares of vineyards in the most prestigious appellations of northern and southern Rhône Valley.

The vineyard

A major name among the wines of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, this Croix de Bois 2022 from M. Chapoutier is produced from vineyards planted on soils made up of rounded quartzite pebbles and red sandy clay.

The vintage

The year 2022 in the Rhône Valley saw a particularly hot and dry summer, offset by restorative rains as the harvest approached. Despite these extreme conditions, this vintage, which is more luminous than sunny, entices through its balance, its aromatic brightness and its complexity, all of which augur well for its exceptional ageing potential.

Blend

Grenache (100%).
