Unique, unconventional, curious about everything, Michel Chapoutier’s mind has never been static. Michel’s wine-journey began when he was 26 years old. He stood up against principals of the past and preconceived ideas. A man close to the earth, in a thorough quest for revealing terroirs and finding the expression of soils through the taste of wines. Since 1991, biodynamics is at the heart M. CHAPOUTIER’s philosophy.
Appearance: brilliant and limpid straw yellow. Nose: complex aromas of vanilla, almonds, dried fruits and linden-tree. The minerality is marked (typical of the soil). Palate: very round and rich wine. An elegant balance, with a light bitterness at the end. Very ripe white fruit aromas (peach and apricot). Beautiful length in mouth and a huge complexity. According to the vintage, the wine can be kept from 30 to 60 years, indeed from 50 to 75 years.
