Description

A structured and aromatic Ermitage red wine

The estate

Established since 1808 in Tain-L’Hermitage, the M. Chapoutier house today embodies the elite of the greatest names in the wines of the Rhône Valley.

Vinegrower and merchant, Michel Chapoutier has managed over the vintages to lead this family business to the top. The wines of Maison Chapoutier are recognized for their refinement and high quality by the most discerning connoisseurs beyond borders. A man of many hats, Michel Chapoutier holds the world record for 100/100 scores awarded by American critic Robert Parker. Mathilde, Michel Chapoutier's daughter, has taken up the torch of this iconic house, overseeing a vineyard of over 350 hectares across the most prestigious appellations of the northern and southern Rhône Valley.

The vineyard

Les Greffieux by M. Chapoutier, named after the first owner of the plot, is a Ermitage wine produced in single varietal. The plot located at the foot of the Hermitage hill is made up of a terrace of glacial alluvium. This vineyard owes its uniqueness to its subsoil composed of deep clays, giving the wine finesse and aromatic richness, as well as rolled pebbles restoring heat and providing concentration and structure.

Vinification and aging

The harvested grapes undergo total destemming before vinification in cement vats. Long maceration promotes optimal extraction of tannins. Only the runoff juice is used in the making of this wine. The aging lasts 14 to 18 months and is carried out in barrels of one or two wines.

Blend

Syrah (100%)

Characteristics and tasting advice for the Les Greffieux 2018 cuvée by M. Chapoutier

Tasting

Color
The color is of an intense garnet hue.

Nose
The nose blends fragrances of small black fruits with savory notes of black pepper and ink.

Palate
With aromatic freshness and satin tannins, the palate seduces with its brilliance and complexity as well as its intense aromas of blueberry and mocha.

Service

This wine from the Rhône Valley should be decanted in its youth to fully enjoy its draped tannins.
