Chapoutier\r\nThe story began with Michel Chapoutier, a unique man with a thirst for knowledge, definitely one of a kind. Michel is openminded and always willing to learn. He seeks to discover and reflect the full potential of his terroirs and let the soils express their true character. That which gives the wines their signature style. This now forms the basis of the M. Chapoutier ethos and our team strives to reveal the very best of what the soils have to offer.\r\nNo name is more closely associated with the greatness of the Rhone valley than M. Chapoutier.\r\nThe history of the Chapoutier family stretches back to the early nineteenth century when current owner Michel Chapoutier\u2019s great-, great-, great-grandfather Marius purchased an estate and some vineyards in the now famous village of Tain l\u2019Hermitage in the Northern Rh\u00f4ne Valley. Marius Chapoutier made history in the region when he became the first grape grower there to vinify his own fruit. Marius had tasted wines other winemakers produced using his fruit and he realized that something was lost in translation, so to speak. He knew that he owned some of the best growing sites in the appellation and he believed \u2014 rightly \u2014 that the grapes grown in his vineyards could produce long-lived world-class wines. In a move unusual at the time, he decided that he should make the wine himself. Not only did the quality of the wines increase greatly, but this move provided the capital to expand the Chapoutiers\u2019 already legendary estate.\r\nA visionary and pioneer in biodynamic winemaking, his restless energy and unconditional commitment to quality have produced tremendous success, with the most 90+ point ratings of all Rh\u00f4ne producers and 16 \ |
