The wine region of Côte-Rôtie
Mythical cru of the northern Rhône with vertiginous slopes: signature Syrah as king red (≥80%) co-fermented with up to 20% Viognier — deep robe with signature aromas of violet, raspberry, blackberry, black olive, smoked bacon, black pepper and a leather touch, fine tannins and signature aromatic finish. Structured Côte Brune (schists) and floral Côte Blonde (granites). AOC (1940), ~300 ha of terraces on Ampuis, ages 10-30 years. Historic cradle of the northern Rhône.
The wine region of Rhone Valley
France's 2nd-largest AOC vineyard, two complementary worlds. Northern: pure Syrah in signature reds (Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas), deep and peppery with blackberry, violet, black olive and smoked bacon notes, exceptional ageing. Opulent Viognier whites (Condrieu, apricot, flowers) and ample Marsanne-Roussanne. Southern: sun-soaked Grenache blends at Châteauneuf, Gigondas, Vacqueyras (candied fruit, garrigue).
The word of the wine: Tastevin
Metal cup, wide and of low height, being used to mirror and taste the wine. Still used in wine brotherhoods for its emblematic and folkloric character, the tastevin has been replaced by the various tasting glasses.
