2004 Côte-Rôtie, René Rostaing
Powerful flavours of chocolate with savoury notes of sizzling bacon fat.
Crew-cut and businesslike (he's also a legal academic and runs a sizeable property portfolio) René Rostaing has made Côte Rôtie (elite northern Rhône Syrah plus a little Viognier) of stark purity at his brutally stylish Ampuis cellar since 1971. He was fortunate in inheriting many small plots, some containing century-old vines and this 'bank' of quality fruit shows through in his wines.
