The Estate and the Vineyard

In the late 1990s, Mr. Chapoutier took over the management of the family business, which had been operating in the Rhone Valley since 1808. Its objective is to enhance biodynamic properties to produce mineral and character wines. Thanks to this, he significantly increased the quality of his wines. These wines are then kept perfectly in time. His trading house thus experienced a period of prosperity due to investments in other regions and other countries (Australia). 

Michel Chapoutier is known for his enthusiasm and his love of wine and life.
