Expert Reviews
“A dark, thick, blockbuster style, with layers of sweet tapenade, steeped cherry, espresso, lavender paste and chewy earth that unfurl. Rich and smoky, showing decadent lashings of oak toast and charred mesquite. Bay leaf and white pepper add an appealing flash of freshness. Iron-edged tannins are firm yet not chunky, offering a refined feeling on the substantial finish. Syrah and Viognier. Best from 2026 through 2042.” – Kristen Bieler Review Date: February 2026
“This has the cooler personality of the vintage with a touch of blood orange character, but also a wide spectrum of red and black berry aromas. Impressive tannin structure that's been expertly crafted. Long finish with excellent integration of spicy oak and stony minerality. From the same seven plots as every year. Matured in 100% new oak. Drink or hold.” Review Date: April 2025
“Somber and darker in profile than the Brune et Blonde, the 2021 Côte-Rôtie Château d'Ampuis has turned out very well in bottle, revealing aromas of smoke, oak, toast, spices and baked dark berries intertwined with notes of iris. Medium- to full-bodied, structured and concentrated, it offers a firm core of fruit and a solid chassis of tannins, concluding with a long, mineral finish. This is a strong effort.” – Yohan Castaing Review Date: November 2025
