Côte Rôtie - 2001 - Domaine des Rosiers
Ref: A052701
A red of tremendous polish and style with a wonderful depth of silky, gamey fruit. From the great 2001 vintage this wine has great keeping potential. Very deep purple colour; red fruits and crystallised violets on the nose; crunchy fruit on the palate with lots of softening tannin, well balanced acidity, great length and a spicy finish. Drevon’s wines are non-filtered and super-intense and can be drunk in their youth but will also keep for many years.

Louis Drevon has 7 hectares of prime-site Côte Rôtie split up in to 27 little parcels of vines on the steep escarpment above Ampuis. He uses 3% Viognier with his Syrah to give his wines that added freshness, and the sheer complexity and profondity of the Drevon Côte Rôties has attracted considerable attention in the past few years, culminating in an excellent recent revue in the ’Wine Advocate’.
