M.Chapoutier - Saint-Joseph Les Granilites 2016

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.
