2021 Côte-Rôtie, Rose Pourpre, Domaine Pierre Gaillard, Rhône

Description

This wine is produced from a 0.8-hectare parcel of vines located in the south-facing Côte Rozier amphitheatre. Here, surrounded by dry stone walls reflecting the day’s heat, vines benefit from a notably warm microclimate. This is ripe and juicy, laced with red and black cherries. The 90% new oak is wonderfully integrated, adding only a hint of spice. It is ethereal and vibrant.

Drink 2024 - 2035

Critics reviews

Jeb Dunnuck 90-92/100
The 2021 Côte Rôtie Rose Pourpre has a touch more purity and precision while still playing in the fresher, pretty style of the vintage. Black raspberries, sappy flowers, and minty notes all define the bouquet, and it's medium-bodied and balanced on the palate, with integrated acidity and fine tannins.jeb_dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com (December 2022)

Lovely Brune-style aromatics here: dark, deep and resonant. Fairly full-bodied and decidedly round, with mouthcoating clay tannins. The oak is well balanced here, adding weight and spice to the fruit. It’s generous for a 2021, with good acidity. From a south-facing parcel of Côte Rozier, all destemmed, and malolactic takes place in new barriques, where it spends 18 months.Drink 2025 - 2035matt_walls, Decanter.com (October 2022)

Tasted blind. Quite closed on the nose. Very soft and textured tannins with good concentration of red fruits, smoke, violet and strawberry and zesty fresh acidity. Sensuous and soft. Will drink early.Drink 2024 - 2032Alistair Cooper MW, JancisRobinson.com (October 2022)
