Domaine Chapoutier is a wine estate located in the Rhône Valley, in the Hermitage appellation. Despite the multiple vineyard properties and diversifications of Maison Chapoutier, the origin of Chapoutier is still in Hermitage. They also purchase grapes (négociant business) and wines within the appellation. Domaine Chapoutier extends over 48 hectares, of which 36 hectares are for red wines and 12 hectares for white wines. Since 1990, Michel Chapoutier has been at the helm of the company. From then on, he undertook to change the working method and switch to biodynamic viticulture.

In Hermitage, 'De l'Orée' is produced only in white. The grape variety, Marsanne, displays superb elegance and purity. 'Le Greffieux' (a specific vineyard site) exists only in red. It comes from a more clay-rich terroir that marks the Syrahs with their more generous and indulgent character. The 'Méal' and 'L'Ermite' cuvées are produced in both red and white. 'Le Pavillon', produced only in red, is richer. For 'Les Bessards', the Syrah vines are planted on micro-terraces facing south and southeast, offering each vine to the sun.

Founded over two centuries ago, Maison M. Chapoutier has always belonged to the same family. Polydor Chapoutier was the first, in 1808, to acquire vineyards. Today, the House owns nearly 360 hectares. 

Since 1808, the Chapoutier name has existed in the Rhône Valley. The distant ancestor Polydor Chapoutier was the first to start buying vineyards, thus moving from the status of a domain winegrower to that of a winemaker, wine producer, and merchant. The pioneering spirit was already inscribed in the family. Since 1990, Michel, in his forties, has been at the head of an exceptional vineyard. A land rich in its history and traditions. Passionate about the expression of soils, Michel gives his convictions the means to flourish. Breakthrough choices, to succeed in synthesizing the past with his own audacity. History of time. As it goes for each element of nature. Time and earth. The roots, the vine, and the fruit. From there was born all the richness and generosity of Maison M. Chapoutier.

Maison Chapoutier owns numerous wine properties in Alsace, in Roussillon, but also in Australia and Portugal. The wines under the name of Maison Chapoutier are those from the négociant activity, with the exception of the single-vineyard grand crus.
