Description

The minerality and elegance of a Saint-Joseph red 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

Le Clos by M. Chapoutier, a benchmark among fine Saint-Joseph wines, takes its name from the eponymous place where the vines rest on brown soils, composed mainly of coarse-grained granite.

Vinification and ageing

Harvested in crates. Alcoholic fermentation in small concrete vats. Long maceration (5 weeks). Aged for 20 months exclusively in barrels (25% new).

The blend

Syrah (100%).

M. Chapoutier’s Le Clos 2020: Characteristics and tasting tips

The tasting

Colour

Intense garnet-black colour with purple highlights.

Nose

The nose blends black fruit fragrances (cherry, blackberry) with subtle graphite notes that provide a suave minerality.

Palate

A rich and elegant attack precedes a palate with silky tannins and a great finesse. The finish is persistent and seductive with a rich aroma that perfectly expresses the nuances of this granite terroir.
