The property
Established since 1808 in Tain-L’Hermitage, the House of M. Chapoutier today embodies the elite of the greatest names in the wines of the Rhone Valley.
Vinegrower and merchant, Michel Chapoutier has managed over the vintages to lead this family business to the top. The wines of Maison Chapoutier are recognized for their refinement and high quality by the finest connoisseurs beyond borders. A man of many hats, Michel Chapoutier holds the world record for 100/100 scores awarded by American critic Robert Parker. Mathilde, Michel Chapoutier's daughter, has taken over the torch of this iconic house, overseeing a vineyard of over 350 hectares across the most prestigious appellations of the Northern and Southern Rhone Valley.
The vineyard
Resulting from parcel selections, this Riesling "Lieu-dit Buehl" Domaine Schieferkopf by M.Chapoutier is an Alsace wine made from grapes from a biodynamically managed plot, located in the municipality of Bernardvillé. Planted on a vein of Alsace blue shale, this steep vineyard benefits from deep rooting, giving the wine its power, as well as a south-facing exposure, developing its concentration and roundness. The most exotic of the three parcels of the estate, Buehl exudes the freshness of its terroir.
The wine
Schieferkopf is part of the Estates and Houses managed by M.Chapoutier. This estate oversees a vineyard whose mosaic of exposures and soils reveal all the nuances and richness of Alsace and German wines.
The vintage
Despite high temperatures and summer drought, this vintage gives birth, thanks in particular to cool nights in the late season, to seductive wines of precision and freshness.
