"The finest vintage for this cuvée I’ve ever tasted, the sensational 2015 Hermitage Chante Alouette boasts awesome notes of white peach, orange marmalade and white flowers in a rich, full-bodied, concentrated style. Coming from three different terroirs on Hermitage Hill (Méal, Les Murets and Chante Alouette), don’t miss it!" Robert Parker

Orange Marmalade

White Peach

The grapes from which this wine is produced come from three different vineyards: • “Le Méal”: characterized by a soil of very old fluvio-glacial alluvial deposits with a high pebble content. • “Les Murets”: whose soil is clay-gravel. Its red clays give the wines a full, rich character. • “Chante-Alouette”: a high-lying terroir whose soil is a mixture of loess and very finely decomposed granite. It gives the wine freshness, salinity and acidity.

M. Chapoutier

The 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.
