Nowadays wine enthusiasts can rarely boast of opening a bottle from Domaine Dervieux-Thaize. After retiring, the producer shared his vines and handed a portion down to his son-in-law René Rostaing, whose wines are now among the best in the appellation.

A gem of a Côte-Rôtie from a property that no longer exists. The wine has a very light and delicate nose underpinned by notes of sweet spice and humus. Several years of maturation give it a pleasant texture with nicely integrated tannins. Its persistent aromas and flavours are proof that this cuvée has been made for ageing.
