Note di degustazione
Opaque ruby. Pungent aromas of fresh dark berries, potpourri and spicecake reveal a bright mineral overtone and a hint of olive paste. Juicy and sharply focused on the palate, offering intense black and blue fruit flavors and a deeper suggestion of candied licorice. Closes with excellent clarity and minerally thrust, leaving behind a suave floral note on the very long, gently tannic finish.

The 2016 Côte Rôtie Champon's is a beautiful effort that’s all from schist soils and spent two years in 400-liter barrels. Sporting a deeper purple/ruby-colored, notes of black fruits, scorched earth, graphite, and crushed violets, medium to full body, sweet tannins, and tons of upfront charm, it's a high-quality 2016 that can be drunk today or cellared for 10-12 years.
A blend of several parcels on schistous soils, the 2016 Cote Rotie Champon's is firm and tannic, in need of 3-4 years in the cellar. It's medium to full-bodied, with ample concentration, bold flavors of grilled plums and a chewy finish.
