This 2018 vintage of Le Clos, from a single parcel of Syrah on deep mica‑granite soils in Saint‑Joseph, presents a dark garnet hue with purple highlights. On the nose there are intense aromas of black cherry, blackberry, graphite and mineral slate.  On the palate it is full‑bodied and richly textured, with soft entry, silky fine tannins, remarkable concentration and a lingering finish that echoes the site’s granite character. 

Founded in 1808 and now led by Michel Chapoutier, the estate is a benchmark of terroir‑driven winemaking in the Northern Rhône. With a firm commitment to biodynamic viticulture, Chapoutier carefully harvests by hand, uses minimal intervention, and crafts single‑vineyard bottlings that express the unique soils and microclimates of each site. The “Sélection Parcellaire” range—including wines like Le Clos—is harvested from old vines on granite slopes, vinified with precision and aged patiently to deliver depth, authenticity and elegance.
