The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine This is the ultra confidential address prized by wine enthusiasts everywhere! In the Rhône Valley, Mathieu Chambeyron continues to disrupt the established hierarchy with his high quality wines offered at reasonable prices. This discreet 5-hectare estate is now one of the best in Côte Rôtie and Condrieu, and never ceases to delight us.
Wine Carried by an exemplary maturity and a generous and gourmet vintage, the 2020 red Côte Rôtie La Chavarine is a model of its appellation. This blend of two parcels of land in the Chavaroche area has a concentrated and elegant structure, framed by very fine tannins, and surrounded by a pure and frank palate. It is a very complete and fresh wine, with density and perfectly well balanced tannins. It deserves a little patience and will ideally be opened at the end of the year. Rated 93/100 by the Committee.
Vinification Hand harvested, 100% destemmed, regular pumping over and trapping. Tangential filtration before bottling. Aged for 20 months in French oak barrels (20% new).
