Côte-Rôtie Coteaux de Tupin 2022 - Jean-Michel Stephan

A red wine from Côte-Rôtie in France, vintage 2022, produced by Jean-Michel Stéphan primarily from the Syrah grape variety, with—in keeping with the estate’s style—a proportion of Viognier co-fermented in accordance with the traditions of the Côte-Rôtie appellation, This wine boasts a deep red colour and a beautiful aromatic intensity, characteristic of the great red wines of Côte-Rôtie, whilst on the palate there are complex notes of black fruits, blackcurrant, blackberry and black cherry, accompanied by hints of violet, spices, black pepper and subtle smoky notes. This Côte-Rôtie Coteaux de Tupin stands out for its depth, precision and energy, typical of Jean-Michel Stéphan’s artisanal style, with a vibrant, elegant and perfectly balanced expression supported by silky tannins and lovely freshness, and this great red wine from the Northern Rhône reflects the winemaker’s craftsmanship and the authentic expression of the Côte-Rôtie terroir, one of the most prestigious appellations in the Rhône Valley. Perfect with roast meats, game, slow-cooked dishes or mature cheeses, this Côte-Rôtie red wine will appeal to lovers of Syrah, Jean-Michel Stéphan’s Côte-Rôtie, great Rhône wines and elegant, complex wines with ageing potential.
