✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the steep, sun-drenched granite terraces of the historic Saint-Joseph appellation, M. Chapoutier's 'Les Granits' Rouge is a masterclass in terroir-driven Syrah. The name pays homage to the stony, fractured granite soils of the lieu-dit, where some of the oldest vines in the region cling to precipitous slopes. These ancient vines, farmed strictly under biodynamic principles, yield concentrated grapes that capture the intense minerality and structural power of the northern Rhone. Traditionally vinified with long maceration and aged in French oak barrels, this cuvee reflects the rugged beauty of its birthplace. It offers a complex aromatic profile of dark berries, cracked black pepper, smoky granite, and wild herbs, underpinned by a refined, stony elegance that has defined the region's winemaking heritage for centuries.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
M. Chapoutier blev grundlagt i 1808 i Tain-l'Hermitage i Rhônedalen og har siden udviklet sig til et af Frankrigs mest berømte vinhuse. Husets internationale stjernestatus tog for alvor fart, da Michel Chapoutier overtog roret i 1990 med sin kompromisløse vision. Som pioner inden for biodynamisk vindyrkning og minimal intervention i vinkælderen er ejendommen særligt hyldet for sine enkeltmarks-aftapninger, 'sélections parcellaires', der formidler de fineste terroiregenskaber på tværs af Rhône og andre vinregioner. Chapoutier, der siden 1996 ikonisk har haft punktskrift (blindeskrift) på alle etiketter, skaber referencepunkter for druer som Syrah, Marsanne og Grenache i prestigiøse appellationer som Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie og Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
