Wine Description:
The "Domaine Champet La Viallière Côte-Rôtie" is a distinguished red wine from the northern Rhône Valley in France, produced by the esteemed Domaine Champet. The Côte-Rôtie appellation is famous for its steep, terraced vineyards and the distinctive Syrah grape, often co-fermented with a small percentage of Viognier. Domaine Champet’s "La Viallière" is sourced from the La Viallière lieu-dit, renowned for its iron-rich, schist soils that contribute to the wine's depth and complexity. The Champet family, known for their traditional approach to winemaking, carefully hand-harvests the grapes, utilizing whole cluster fermentation and aging the wine in oak barrels to enhance its character and longevity. The style of La Viallière is a perfect embodiment of classic Côte-Rôtie, combining the power and richness of Syrah with the elegance and finesse that the region's terroir can impart.

Wine Expert Note:

The Domaine Champet La Viallière Côte-Rôtie captivates with its deep ruby color and a seductive bouquet. The nose is rich with aromas of dark fruits like blackberries and plums, interwoven with notes of smoked meat, black pepper, and a hint of floral Viognier. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with a balance of firm tannins and a lively acidity. Layers of flavor unfold, revealing dark fruit, licorice, earthy undertones, and a subtle smokiness. The finish is long and complex, with an enduring reminder of the unique terroir of La Viallière. This wine is a testament to the skill of Domaine Champet in crafting a Côte-Rôtie that is both powerful and refined, offering an exquisite expression of the Syrah grape.
