“Invitare”, with its notes of white peaches, candied fruit and nice taut acidity, shows us the authentic character of the Condrieu appellation. Colour: deep gold, golden yellow with green lights. Nose: very fruity, exotic fruit (pineapple), acacia blossom, litchee, apricot and peach. Palate: round, full, good length in mouth with a final of vanilla.

Short ageing on the lees of around 8 months to preserve freshness and the varietal character of the grape. Ageing is carried out in wood to give the wine complexity and magnitude. 15% of the wine is aged in new barrels to preserve the freshness and minerality of the fruit. The remaining 85% are aged in demi-muids previously used for one to two vintages, which gives the wine consistency, power and aromatic complexity.

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.
