M. Chapoutier Cerasinus Cornas La Collection Bio

The story began with Michel Chapoutier, a unique man with a thirst for knowledge, definitely one of a kind. He seeks to discover and reflect the full potential of his terroirs and let the soils express their true character.
This now forms the basis of the M. CHAPOUTIER ethos to reveal the very best of what the soils have to offer.

The plots of this beautiful Cornas are located in three different parts of the appellation’s northernmost area (Arlette), where the hillsides are granite and have a higher limestone content.
