Producer Notes
Hailed as one of the top producers in the Rhone, M.Chapoutier wines are as diverse as they are complex. All wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered to allow all the terroir flavour to remain. For some this is the element that makes the wines so spectacular, for us, it seems to leave an overlying taste of mushrooms in all his wines. Wine is definitely subjective!
