"The cream of the crop of white Saint-Joseph wines"

“A lovely, fragrant white wine—floral and smoky—with notes of honeysuckle and citrus zest that layer over aromas of apple and creamy melon on a full-bodied palate. Spicy notes, white mocha, and ginger add depth to this refined palate, with a hint of honey in the long, salty, and mineral-driven finish. Pairs well with pastries. Delicious. Drink now through 2028.” (Wine Spectator 2026)

Rated estate (2024 guide): 5*Stars (Exceptional producers who represent the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and around the world)

About the estate:

Michel Chapoutier is now ably supported by his children, Mathilde and Maxime, in running the largest wine house in the Northern Rhône, a long-standing specialist in Hermitage and Crozes-Hermitage. Chapoutier is, on the one hand, a major wine merchant, but it also produces top-tier estate wines, with the estate’s vineyards having long been cultivated using biodynamic methods. The single-vineyard selections—the top of the line—perfectly reflect the owner’s philosophy: produced from specific plots, made from a single grape variety, and released annually, they are above all a reflection of the terroir, showcasing both its best qualities and, at times, its extremes.

Wine rated (2025 guide) 93/100

About the wine:

The nose is very spicy, with elegant oak notes that frame the pineapple aromas. It’s fairly full-bodied, certainly flavorful, but not heavy, as it retains liveliness, a hint of salinity, and drinkability. So, overall, it’s a rather sophisticated wine. Very well-balanced for a hot vintage, it possesses the intensity of a hot vintage without being overly rich or high in alcohol. Charming. Fermented in demi-muids and aged 25% in barrels.

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

This venerable (19th-century) and must-visit winery, propelled onto the international stage by Michel Chapoutier beginning in the 1990s, offers a wide range of wines sourced from its own vineyards (345 ha, cultivated biodynamically) or from purchased grapes, across most of the Rhône Valley’s flagship appellations, as well as in Roussillon and Alsace. His children, Mathilde and Maxime, have recently joined the family business.

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

Under the name Maison M. Chapoutier, we feature wines from the wine merchant division of this 200-year-old institution based in Tain-l'Hermitage. Michel Chapoutier, now joined by his daughter Mathilde, offers a very wide range of Rhône appellations here, with a production volume approaching one million bottles. But the Chapoutier name is also present in other regions (Champagne, Alsace, Languedoc, and even Australia), a testament to this family’s dynamism. While some vintages are impressive, others, on the other hand, are far more run-of-the-mill. This inconsistency has led us to remove the star from the estate this year.

Wine rated (2023 guide) 16,5/20

Rated "Recommended"

About the wine:

Slightly subdued on the nose, clean and fresh, with a hint of toasted almond. On the palate, it offers a sense of ripeness, apple peel, and a note of toasted nuts. There are also fresh and spicy notes. Good freshness, well-balanced—and with good body—and a slight tingle on the finish.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 93/100

About the wine:

The nose is very fresh and delicate for such a hot and dry vintage, but with a little aeration, a lovely aroma of lemon curd develops, followed—with a bit more aeration—by a hint of caramel. The palate is concentrated and medium-bodied, with a pronounced stony character on the finish. Sourced from the vineyards of Tournon and Mauves, with a mix of granitic and sedimentary soils. Made from organically grown grapes. Enjoy now or celller.

About the wine:

The 2022 Saint Joseph Les Granilites Blanc has clearly improved and displays beautiful richness and great depth. Quince, orange blossom, and spicy notes blend into a medium-bodied white wine that is round, supple, and well-balanced, with well-integrated acidity, good depth on the mid-palate, and exceptional length. It is a lovely, pure, and elegant white wine that will continue to develop for 5 to 7 years.
