François Villard Cote-Rotie Le Gallet Blanc 2020 Organic , 0,75 L

It's no secret that Côte-Rôtie wines are among the most sought-after in the world. Originating from the northern Rhône Valley in France, these wines are renowned for their complex flavours and structures. Made exclusively from the Syrah grape variety, they hold an unrivalled reputation in the region, a testament to which are the wines of François Villard.

In the glass, this wine is already impressive with its deep red colour and aromas of wild berries and a hint of pepper. It’s an incredibly complex wine that makes you eager for the first sip. On the palate, it is full-bodied, dense, and spicy, just as expected. Notes of minerals, spice, coffee, and vanilla create a layered profile. The wine's power and complexity come from the harmonious interplay of fruit, tannins, and acidity, with moderate alcohol content ensuring a balanced presentation. The finish is long and persistent, with plenty of potential for further development.

This is a great, intense, and complex wine that will delight lovers of full-bodied reds. It pairs wonderfully with red meat, grilled dishes, and mature cheese.
