As Marius, Michel Chapoutier’s great-grandfather, always said ‘A good wine is one that beckons us to take another sip’.
These wines carry this message and reflect the warmth of the southern France terroirs in which they are rooted.
The Grenaches of this rosé are located on clay-limestone slopes, while the Cinsaults and the Syrahs grow in predominantly sandy soils. All harvested when fully ripe, and at night to ensure they retain their fruitiness and freshness.
