M. Chapoutier.

Dating back to 1808, M. Chapoutier is one of the Rhône Valley’s most influential names, celebrated for its pioneering embrace of biodynamic viticulture in the 1990s. Situated at the foot of the legendary Hermitage hill, this working estate is far more than a standard tasting room. Visitors can explore the steep, storied vineyards on foot or by electric bike before sampling the estate's highly coveted single-parcel Hermitage wines, such as the flagship L'Ermite. The experience is bolstered by an impressive hospitality footprint that includes the Fac & Spera Hotel & Spa, the Marius Bistro, and a private winemaker’s cottage tucked into the vines. It is a comprehensive, year-round destination for anyone wanting to truly understand the terroir and philosophy of the northern Rhône.
