Description
93% Syrah, 7% Voignier. Fermentation: Temperature controlled, lasting 4 weeks in closed stainless steel tanks. Aging: 38 months in new oak barrel. 14.5% ABV
The hallmark of Château d’Ampuis is an unbelievably seductive perfume full of sweet black fruits and spices, and an elegance despite the intense concentration of fruit (prunes, blackberry) and tannin. Château d’Ampuis defines what a great Côte-Rôtie should be with its beautiful balance, muscular complexity and length. A wine from a tannic and muscular vintage due to the hot climate. Solid tannins, yet well rounded by long oak ageing.
