i. Biography
Raphaël Chopin is the winemaker at Domaine Raphaël Chopin in Lantignié, Beaujolais. He speaks about wine in images of movement and contrast: “There is a different method for each wine batch.” “A wine batch is a blank page where I can write my story or my music.”
At a Glance He pushes that idea further with fire-and-ice language: “I play around with fire and ice for my wine-makings.” “When I make wine, I'm in another dimension.” Each batch gets its own method, and the work starts again from a blank page.
