Rene took ownership of a small holding in the Rhone Valley in 1971 and since then has expanded and become one of the most highly regarded producers in the region. The stream of accolades for Rene hasn't looked like slowing down anytime soon either with a string of fantastic vintages over the last decade. 2019 is yet another strong vintage in the Rhone Valley and has seen Domaine Rostaing produce another astounding collection of Cote-Rotie. The wines are deep, unctuous and highly perfumed, with tremendous cellaring potential.

2019 Cote-Rotie 'Ampodium'
Usually $185 - Special Offer $175
Primary black/blue fruit, violet, allspice and olive qualities on the highly perfumed nose, where a smoky mineral nuance adds energetic lift. Sweet, deep-pitched blueberry, cherry and fruitcake flavors spread out steadily in the mouth, picking up spiciness and a touch of licorice on the back half. Finishes with sharp clarity and silky tannins that provide closing shape and grip

2019 Cote-Rotie 'La Landonne'
Extremely Limited - $379
...Notes of violets and red raspberries lead the way on the nose, backed by the vineyard's signature roasted meat and black olives. Medium to full-bodied, incredibly concentrated and worthy of two decades of cellaring, yet not unapproachable even now, this is another suburb effort to emerge from Rostaing's magical vineyard holdings.

2019 Cote-Rotie 'Cote Blonde'
Extremely Limited - $419
An assertively perfumed bouquet displays an array of ripe red and blue fruit preserve, floral and spice qualities, along with suggestions of licorice, smoky bacon fat and mineral notes. Effortlessly marries depth and energy and offers sweet cherry, crème de mûre and candied violet flavors sharpened by building mineral and spice flourishes. Shows noteworthy clarity and mineral cut on a long, penetrating finish that echoes the floral and mineral notes with real authority.
