Description

A lively and elegant white wine from Alsace

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.

As a winemaker and merchant, Michel Chapoutier has managed to lead this family business to the top over the vintages. The wines of Maison Chapoutier are recognized for their refinement and high quality by the finest connoisseurs beyond borders. A man of many hats, Michel Chapoutier holds the world record for 100/100 ratings 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

Resulting from parcel selections, this Riesling "Lieu-dit Fels" Domaine Schieferkopf 2019 from M. Chapoutier is a wine from Alsace made from a plot managed in biodynamics located in the municipality of Bernardvillé. Planted on a vein of blue schist from Alsace, this shallow vineyard, facing southeast and with a particularly windy microclimate, gives the wine minerality, tension and elegance. This plot is recognized as the most mineral of the estate.

The wine

Schieferkopf is part of the Estates and Houses managed by M. Chapoutier. This estate oversees a vineyard whose mosaic of exposures and soils reveal all the nuances and richness of Alsatian and German wines.

Vinification and aging

Manual harvest. Long pressing followed by a static settling at cold. Alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The malolactic fermentation is total, characteristic of the late terroir of the Schieferkopf estate, in order to develop the complexity, roundness and minerality of the wine. The aging lasts 15 months in foudres.
