Imbibe a luxurious wine experience with the Jasmin Cote Rotie La Giroflarie 2021, made in France's esteemed Rhône Valley region. The Jasmin family, accomplished winemakers since 1834, elegantly marry tradition and innovation in this creation. Perfectly embodying their meticulous, almost Burgundian, approach to viti-culture, this wine showcases a meticulous selection from their oldest vineyards on Côte Brune and Côte Blonde.
Deriving its charismatic aroma from Syrah grapes with a dash of Viognier, the wine is a work of art, boasting an intoxicating fusion of violet and spicy black fruits, underscored by a complex palate. Fascinatingly, the grapes are co-fermented in traditional open-top wooden vats and aged for up to 24 months in old oak foudres, imparting a unique character to the Jasmin Cote Rotie La Giroflarie 2021. Preserving its purity of taste and demonstrating remarkable ageing potential, this is a refined expression of Côte Rôtie.
