Cote Rotie 'Germine' Duclaux 2021

gneiss. The harvest is carried out by hand and the grapes are 80% destemmed and then fermented together in temperature-controlled steel tanks, where alcoholic fermentation is accompanied by 3 weeks of contact between the must and the skins. The subsequent aging phase takes place between barriques and demi-muids, 20% of which are new, and lasts for 18 months before bottling.

Benjamin et David Duclaux Cote-Rotie ‘La Germine’ shows a cherry red color with violet reflections. Vivid and abundant are the hints of red and black fruits that combine with perceptions of roasted coffee, smoky notes, and suggestions of graphite. An elegant and delicate sip in its softness, characterized by sinous tannins and a pleasant freshness that leads to a long and refined finish.
