The estate and the wine |

A true master of the Rhône Valley, Aurélien Chirat expertly tames the steep slopes of Condrieu and Côte Rôtie with remarkable skill. In recent vintages, he has been guiding Vignobles Chirat towards excellence, expanding the vineyards with both talent and care.
Now crafting the full spectrum of the Northern Rhône's finest wines, Aurélien Chirat brings us great joy, especially given the reasonable prices compared to the prestige of these esteemed appellations. |

The 2022 red Côte Rôtie La Rose Brune is a gem of power and substance. Marked by spices, a hint of cocoa, and sophisticated oak that will need time to refine and integrate, it presents a mature, serious, and concentrated profile with high-quality tannins. Patience is key: a year in the cellar will be necessary before enjoying it over the next decade or beyond. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
