M. Chapoutier La Pleiade Shiraz Tinto

Description

The Chapoutier family have been working in the Rhône Valley since 1808. A distant ancestor, Polydor Chapoutier, was the first to buy vines there, evolving from a simple grape grower to a merchant who made his own wine. The pioneering spirit was already part of the family tradition. Michel, now in his early thirties, manages an exceptional heritage, a land rich in history and tradition. Passionately interested in expressing the character of the soil, Michel has found the means to bring his convictions to life. A new era for the estate, embracing changes that link past traditions to Michel’s bold convictions. It is a matter of time. As with all natural elements, what matters is the climate and the land, roots, vines and fruit. This is the foundation of all the diversity and generosity of Maison M. Chapoutier. (illustrative image)
