Tasting notes

Fragrant violets and small red fruits with peppery spice and a smoky edge, classic of northern Rhône Syrah. The palate is elegant yet structured, with fine tannins from old vines and careful oak ageing, and a long, savoury finish. A classic, age-worthy northern Rhône red.

About this wine

A Côte-Rôtie from Syrah vines around 50 years old. Tardieu-Laurent was founded in 1994 by Burgundy négociant Dominique Laurent and winemaker Michel Tardieu, sourcing from old vines on the best plots of the Rhône Valley and working with organic and biodynamic growers in limited quantities.

One third of the stems are removed before fermentation; the wine then ages for 12 months in one-year-old barriques and 6 months in large oak casks. It shows notes of violets, spice, smoke and small red fruits.

Serve at 16–18 °C with red meat or charcuterie.
