La Champine is a great introduction to Jean-Michel Gerin's range: a very fruity wine with soft tannins and fine balance, and good value for money into the bargain. It comes from young vines, and is matured for 12 months in barrique barrels (70%) and stainless steel vats (30%). This wine goes well with many meat dishes (beef, lamb, game).

IGP Collines Rhodaniennes Syrah La Champine Jean-Michel Gerin serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Charcuteries diverses, Grillades, Chapon à la broche.

    Information about domain Domaine Gerin

    The Gerin family has lived in Ampuis in the heart of the Côte-Rôtie for six generations. Jean-Michel Gerin established his own vineyards in 1983 with plots in the Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu appellations and two very fine parcels in La Landonne and Les Grandes Places. His vines are tended the traditional way, by hand and without the use of chemical fertilisers or herbicides with organic conversion starting in 2020. Extraction is a priority throughout the vinification process and the wines are aged in low-capacity oak barrels. Jean-Michel's wines are concentrated and impressively velvety. His 17-hectare property takes in the Condrieu and Saint-Joseph appellations and the Collines Rhodaniennes IGP. Along with his wife, Monique, he represents the new wave of Côte-Rôtie producers even though his considerable experience gives his wines plenty of depth and finesse. In 2002 he also embarked on an additional venture, much further south in the sunny Priorat wine region, alongside friends Laurent Combier and Peter Fischer.
