Great video, really enjoying your tasting of quality wines. I never had a Chapoutier wine before, or even a whine from the Rhône. But I like Syrah, so I would love to try. Which quality Chapoutier/Rhône Syrah can you recommend for up to 50€ per bottle? 🤔 Enjoy the Méal! 🍷

There are 2 Chapoutier wines that are mainly composed of Syrah and very affordable. Domaine de Bila-Haut L’esquerda and Marius by Michel Chapoutier. Cheers, Jamie

From Chapoutier La Sizeranne Hermitage or Les Bernadine Chateauneuf du Pape. Cote Rotie from Saint Cosme is a great bargain!

Thank you for the pairing suggestions! Hunter friends give me game for Cmas, & I regularly buy the best bits of lamb I can find, so - I agree: both deserve a Great Wine! (So many people don't seem to know there's life beyond beef!)

I was salivating just watching you drink this... Thank you for opening this and sharing with us. 🎉

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

It would be amazing if you could do a masterclass on writing tasting notes (the elaborate way, the quick one like in a tasting event and the casual way)

Perfect execution Konstantin

Never tried Chapoutier, but I'm sure to now. Great video. Blessed enough to have 96 Domaine Jean-Louis Chave Hermitage last year, which was awesome. Hopefully I can get one of these great Chapoutier wines soon. Keep up the great work.

Bad ass indeed. Your feelings about wine and mine are in complete accord! Lamb, syrah, death. (Just rewatched this episode. Damn!) And again! Dreamy Rhone.

Chapoutier is one of the world’s best winemakers. I went to Tain l’Hermitage in 2011, and enjoyed some of the finest drinking ever. Definitely in my top ten.

Now I wish KZread had a smell-o-vision option so I could enjoy the aromas with you!

Nice tasting, thank you Sir! I have Le Pavillon 91 still in my cellar. Is it getting too old? And how Le Pavillon compares to Le Méal in the same vintage?

Thank you for yet another lovely video. Have you tasted any Cote Rotie on your channel?

Haha, really cannot answer your question this time, because I never had any wine of Chapoutier so far and I only had one Hermitage up to now (the one of Guigal), but a "Le Meal" is definetely on my "icon wines to drink"-list. Apart from that if I had to guess I would have thought that the one from '96 would even be more expensive because the younger wines, which still need to age already cost between 150 and 200 €. All in all, thanks for introducing this wine to us!

Lol. You have to try some! It is surprising that the wine is only 300 EUR but sometimes the aged wines are not that much more expensive than the more recent releases. That doesn't make much sense.

@@KonstantinBaumMasterofWine As I said in a comment to another video: Every medal has two sides. As a wine freak I have drunk a lot of different wines (of course far less than you did) and there are so many good producers of whom you should have tried at least one wine. Thus on the one hand I think its difficult to impossible to try at least one wine of every good producer but on the other hand because of this your profession and my hobby never gets boring! So I have to cope with never having tried everything thats worth a try but that is a problem I really like to have because it also means there will always be something new to explore and for sure I will explore Chapotier in future.

Great videos well done.How you come to the conclusion of how many points to give to a every wine?i know you use the BLIC but how you give those points?thanks in advance 🙂👍

The painting of Your back! 😍 I want that too. Can you give me a tip were to find it?

Great video

Interesting. I found the oak in the 2015 Chapoutier single vineyard Hermitages totally over the top and I seriously doubt the wines will ever be less than oaky and not in balance to my taste. They will integrate somewhat but I thought these were made in an 'international' or 'Parker' style. If that's what you like all power to you, but I prefer the expressions from Jaboulet (since about 1999 - they had a bad run through most of the 1990s) - like La Chappelle, or even La Maison Bleu - or JL Chave's Hermitage. On a budget, there's a hell of a lot of really good quality Crozes-Hermitage that hasn't been buried in oak. Perhaps the oak paneling was not so prominent in the 1990s, given your description.

Best surprise with quality was Le Meal Blanc 1997 😃🙏

How about a decanting class?

How good are the cheaper Chapoutier (100% syrah)? Im looking at the Les Meysonniers and Crozes Hermitage La Petite Ruche.

a wine seldom needs to be carafed. if it is too old, decanted to separeted feom the sediments, or air a little if the wine is reduced; if the wine is too young, we should not open it. carafe will not help, since the matuation in bottle is basically without oxidation, while putting the wine in air, its evolution is totally different from i would have been in bottle, although it's getting round. Am I right, MW. :)

I have the 05 and 07 at home. Is the glass riedel performance series for syrah?
