Côte-Rôtie Côte Rozier Guy Bernard (Domaine) 2006

The wine

This cuvée originates from a parcel more than sixty years old grown in the lieu-dit of the same name in the town of Ampuis. The Syrah has been fermented and macerated for more than three weeks, enriched with daily pump-overs. The wine has been matured for 22 months in barrique barrels. The domain produces a wine with a deep, almost black appearance. It requires many years of keeping before it will reveal its black berry notes. Genuinely racy and robust, the tannins of this wine become more refined over time and express themselves elegantly, giving way to a long, persistent finish.
