Wine Description:
M. Chapoutier Hermitage Monier de la Sizeranne is a highly sought-after wine produced by the renowned winemaker Michel Chapoutier. This wine comes from the Hermitage appellation, which is known for its steep, terraced vineyards that produce some of the world's most exceptional Syrah grapes. The Monier de la Sizeranne vineyard, in particular, is known for its granite soils and south-facing slopes, which provide ideal growing conditions for the grapes.

Cons:
  • M. Chapoutier Hermitage Monier de la Sizeranne is a bold wine that can overpower less-experienced palates. It is a complex and powerful wine that can be too intense for some. The tannins are quite present, so it may not be an ideal choice for those who prefer wines with lower tannins

Wine Expert Note:

M. Chapoutier's Hermitage Monier de la Sizeranne is an exquisite expression of the appellation's terroir. An intense nose of ripe red fruit and smoky earth leads to a palate full of blackberry, cassis, and spice. The tannins are well-integrated and the finish is long and satisfying. An outstanding and complex wine, it is a great example of the power and elegance of Hermitage.

When discussing the northern Rhône, the name Jamet sparks excitement. In the 1970s, Jean-Luc began winemaking with his father, and in 1985, he co-founded Domaine Jamet in Ampuis with his brother Jean-Paul. Over the years, the domain earned an excellent reputation beyond borders. However, with increasing success, tensions emerged between the brothers. Jean-Luc handled the hard work in the vineyard and cellar but remained overshadowed, while his brother managed wine sales. These conflicts and the desire to eventually pass on his own estate to his son led Jean-Luc to establish his winery in 2012. They divided the parcels between them, with Jean-Luc now owning 8 hectares in prime, slate-dominated locations, including renowned sites like Lancement, La Landonne, Fongeant, Côte Bodin, and Les Moutonnes, in Côte Rôtie. Jean-Luc maintains strict quality standards under his name, with extremely high vine densities of 10-12,000 vines per hectare and consistently low yields of under 40hl per hectare, resulting in exceptional, concentrated wines with captivating fruit and pronounced freshness.

The grape varieties Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre unite in the cuvée of this dark red wine. The vines thrive on varied soil. Limestone, granite, pebbles and alluvial land determine the overall picture. The vines are on average 35 years old. After a careful and selective harvest, the winegrowers ferment the Guigal Côtes du Rhône Rouge traditionally at a controlled temperature. The wine stays on the skins for a long time and thus gains color and taste. Before being bottled, the Guigal Côtes du Rhône Rouge matures in oak barrels for a year and a half.
