Information
About the producer

Maison Chapoutier is without doubt one of the most prestigious names in the Rhône producing some of the finest Hermitage. The domain converted its 350 hectares of vines to biodynamic viticulture, making it the largest vineyard to adopt this method of cultivation. It has held certification since 1999. The Chapoutier savoir faire has spread to other vineyards in other winemaking regions: Provence, Beaujolais, Roussillon, Champagne, Alsace, Portugal but also Australia. In 1879, Polydor Chapoutier bought a few hectares of vines and started a negociant business. Seven generations have succeeded him, and Michel Chapoutier is currently at the helm. Since 1996, all the labels have been transcribed in braille. Chapoutier is often one of the last to harvest to ensure that grapes reach optimal maturity.

About the wine

Chapoutier, the iconic Rhône Valley house with vines spanning over 350 hectares in both the north and south of the region, needs no introduction. It offers us this Hermitage red wine called Mure de Larnage. The Syrah, the region’s noble grape variety, used to produce this wine, has benefited from a semi-continental climate with Mediterranean influences, while drawing the nutrients necessary to flourish from essentially gneiss and granite soils, through environmentally friendly growing methods based on biodynamic principles.
In the winery, the hand-picked Syrah grapes undergo a thorough vinification, culminating in a year and a half’s ageing in casks with a relatively high proportion of new oak.
Designed for long ageing, the wine boasts a dense garnet-red colour with complex notes of cooked red and black fruit, liquorice, pepper, violets and leather. The palate is both powerful and persistent.
