Michel Chapoutier is a man obsessed by quality and character from the roots up. He particularly loves wine grown on granitic soils. This brilliant Saint-Joseph is from just such a vineyard and displays rich, stone fruit with a bright mineral edge.

Marsanne needs the right environment to show at its best and Chapoutier’s Saint-Joseph vineyards offer exactly that. Michel Chapoutier adores the grape – it shows in the quality of this wine. Since he took over, the family cellar in Tain l’Hermitage has ranked among the undisputed champions of the Rhône. Robert Parker writes: “Michel Chapoutier is one of the most fascinating personalities in the wine world. The quality of his wines is often extraordinary, frequently brilliant” (Wine Advocate). Deschants is a tremendous expression of the Marsanne grape and Chapoutier's beautifully situated Saint-Joseph vineyards. Taste that brilliance in this organic Marsanne. A lovely drop, served gently chilled, with cream-sauced white meats or fish.
