"Released under the Peroline name in Europe, the 2022 Côte Rôtie La Chavaroche comes from the Chavaroche lieu-dit and is not destemmed. It's vinified all in stainless steel and spends a year in foudre, followed by a year in demi-muids. Red plums, blackberries, iron, bloody blue fruits, pepper, and rose petal notes all emerge from this incredibly complex, full-bodied Côte Rôtie. It has beautiful overall balance, tons of tannins, a good sense of freshness, and outstanding length. Hide bottles for a solid decade and enjoy over the following two decades. Drink 2035-2055."

Winemaker Notes:

"The cuvée that we have imported from the outset (1983 vintage) is from the “Chavaroche” vineyard. As explained above, this wine is aged for thirty to thirty-six months prior to bottling. It is, quite simply, a ferocious wine, unique in its uninhibited expression of the smells and flavors of the appellation. No compromise is brooked here. The result is a wine that is controversial, too “wild” for many but, for us, one of the most elite wines in our personal pantheon. We import annually approximately 2,400 bottles (a mix of 750mls and magnums)."
