Note di degustazione
Blackberries, violets, game, and bouquet garni all emerge from Burgaud's 2022 Côte Rôtie. Medium to full-bodied and nicely concentrated on the palate, with ripe tannins, this elegant and seamless effort shows beautiful balance and will drink well for over a decade. Drink 2025-2040. Bernard Burgaud produces a single Côte Rôtie from roughly nine hectares of Syrah planted on steep slopes above Ampuis, with parcels in Côte Blonde, Le Champin, Leyat, Fongeant, Les Moutonnes, and La Brosse. The grapes are fully destemmed and see frequent punch-downs during fermentation. Elevage lasts 15-18 months in barrique, with about 20% new oak, and the wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered. Since 2019, Bernard's son Pierre has led the estate, continuing its very traditional approach.

The 2022 Côte-Rôtie Bernard Burgaud is marked by an intense barnyard smell pointing to the presence of Brettanomyces. Dilute and rustic, it checks out with an astringent finish.
A bright, juicy and pulpy Cote-Rotie. The nose reveals notes of dark cherries, blueberries, roasted meat, baking spices and a touch of leather. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and bright acidity. Vivid and transparent with a succulent core of blue fruit at the center. Bright and pure. Lively finish. Drink or hold.
100% Syrah. 100% destemmed. Traditional vinification with indigenous yeasts. Ageing for 15 months in oak barrels, 20% new. Cask sample. Tasted blind. Chewy and dense nose. Cola and smoked meat, burly and fleshy with firm tannins, the oak is present and should integrate over time. There is some vibrancy and energy that is tightly coiled and waiting to express itself. Needs time. (AC)
