Châteauneuf-du-Pape Pie VI Chapoutier 2018
Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC
15%
0.75L
Intensity
This blend of Grenache and Syrah comes from a soil of pebbles and marl. It was vinified in concrete vats with indigenous yeasts. This Châteauneuf-du-Pape has an intense, crimson colour that gives off generous aromatic notes. Hints of black fruit, spices, and bitter cacao are lifted by herbaceous notes. Mellow and velvety, the palate is also complex and concentrated – it will pair nicely with characterful dishes.
About the Producer Chapoutier
Maison Chapoutier is without doubt one of the most prestigious names in the Rhône producing some of the finest Hermitage. The domain converted its 300 hectares of vines to biodynamic viticulture, making it the largest vineyard to adopt this method of cultivation. It has held certification since 1999. Chapoutier is often one of the last estates to harvest its grapes so that they are at optimal ripeness.The Chapoutier savoir faire has spread to other vineyards in other winemaking regions: Provence, Beaujolais, Roussillon, Champagne, Alsace, Portugal but also South Australia.
This family's winemaking journey started way back in 1806 but 1879 was a turning point when Polydor Chapoutier bought a few hectares of vines and started a negociant business. Seven generations have succeeded him, and Michel Chapoutier is currently at the helm, supported by his children Mathilde and Maxime. Together, they continue the family's story, all while highlighting Rhône's great terroirs.
