To reward the loyalty of Chapoutier’s single-parcel enthusiasts in Hermitage, we are offering an exclusive allocation, along with a special surprise—a bottle of Chante-Alouette gifted with every €500 purchase. A true expression of this legendary terroir, Chante-Alouette blends fruit from multiple parcels, bringing together all the nuances of the hillside.
This is a rare opportunity, given the prestige and scarcity of these wines, consistently awarded top Parker ratings. The exceptional 2020 vintage stands as one of the decade’s finest, showcasing remarkable depth and an outstanding aging potential. |

Pure Marsanne, the 2020 white Ermitage Le Méal is made from vines that are over 50 years old and still yield a confidential production. It is a parcel selection from the eponymous hillside on very old alluvial soils covered with pebbles, vinified partly in wood in large containers. Without doubt the most complex of all the lieux-dits, a monster of richness and finesse combined, very intense, it delivers the quintessence of the great whites of the Rhone Valley; a wine of high gastronomy marked by yellow fruits and a long finish on zest. Rated 96/100 by Parker. |
