Description

The complexity and exceptional length of a Saint-Joseph wine

The estate

Established since 1808 in Tain-L'Hermitage, M. Chapoutier is an elite reference among fine Rhône Valley wines today.

Winemaker and wine merchant, Michel Chapoutier has successfully elevated 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 comprises over 350 hectares of vineyards in the most prestigious appellations of the northern and southern Rhône Valley region.

The vineyard

Les Granits 2020 is a Saint-Joseph wine that stems from a rigorous selection of old Syrah vines planted on poor, stony granite soils.

Vinification and ageing

The hand-picked grapes are 100% destemmed before vinification. Slow fermentation in small concrete vats. Long maceration (over 4 weeks). Exclusive use of free-run wine. Aged for 16 to 18 months in barrels (some of which are new, as well as first and second-fill barrels).

The blend

Syrah (100%).
