The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Renowned winemaker, at the head of one of the most esteemed estates of the Rhone Valley region, Michel Chapoutier presides over a phenomenal collection of Crus. His talent as a winemaker and his unique knowledge of the vineyard enables him to find the best terroirs for his wines. Of amazing consistency throughout each vintage, his wines are beautiful representations of their appellations. A true reference of the winemaking world! 

It was therefore only natural for us to follow this path to excellence, going back to the Maison Chapoutier with Olivier Poussier to select and blend the most beautiful wines from this sensational terroir.
Wine A blend of 3 of the appellation's flagship villages, the 2019 Red Saint-Joseph Les Pilandiers is a stylish wine that benefits from all the virtuosity of the Chapoutier style. This Syrah grape, birthed on granite soils, gives off a dense, deep body with notes of graphite, black fruits and Sichuan pepper. The palate is rich, firm and powerful, with fine tannins and a spicy finish: everything you would expect from a very fine Saint-Joseph. With an aging potential of 7 to 10 years, it is a must-have for sure.
Vinification Hand harvested, totally destemmed, aged for 15 months in concrete vats and demi-muids of 2 to 3 wines.
