In a few words ...
"le clos is part of chapoutier's "fac & spera" range. "fac & spera, make and hope, is the motto of the chapoutier house, and the philosophy applied to our parcel selections, which are the result of the selection of a specific parcel. Here, the winemaker allows the terroir to express itself unhindered, to achieve the exact combination of soil, climate and traditional know-how. It's a photograph of a grape variety in a given vintage on a given terroir. These are exceptional, rare wines, created from our oldest vines. Here, biodynamic viticulture takes on its full meaning. "soil: brown soils derived from coarse-grained granite with black mica, fractured and locally altered.harvest: bunches are cut and transported in small crates to the winery.vinification: alcoholic fermentation takes place in a small 30 hl concrete vat, with a long maceration of around 5 weeks.ageing: entirely in barrel for around 20 months (25% new barrels).tasting: dark garnet-black color, rich with violet highlights. On the nose, lovely notes of black fruit (cherry, blackberry), beautiful minerality with hints of graphite. On the palate, a suave, rich and elegant attack. Very fine, silky tannins. Lingering finish with aromatic notes reminiscent of the granite terroir. Food & wine pairings: small game (pheasant, mallard with Morello cherries), duck breast with cranberries, woodcock toast.

Maison M. Chapoutier
Maison M. Chapoutier is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 123 wines available to purchase, including the wine Le Clos 2019.
Appellation
Saint-Joseph
The appellation Saint-Joseph is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Maison M. Chapoutier and its 123 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
