This wine has layers of smoke and dark chocolate, leather and black olive mingle seamlessly into raspberry and blackberry flavours in this wine. While fine, penetrating tannins lend a taut feel, it's a freshly balanced Syrah that's inviting already. At peak now–2027

About this wine
M. Chapoutier - Côte-Rôtie - Les Becasses
M. Chapoutier's Côte-Rôtie - Les Becasses is a wine that is sure to impress even the most discerning of wine connoisseurs. This wine is made from a blend of Syrah and Viognier grapes, which are grown in the Northern Rhône Valley of France. The wine is aged in oak barrels for 18 months, which gives it a rich and complex flavour profile.
The taste profile of this wine is characterised by its deep ruby colour and its intense aromas of black fruit, spices, and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and rich, with flavours of blackberry, black cherry, and a hint of pepper. The tannins are firm and well-structured, giving the wine a long and satisfying finish.
The history of the producer, M. Chapoutier, dates back to 1808 when the family first started making wine in the Rhône Valley. Today, the winery is run by Michel Chapoutier, who is known for his commitment to biodynamic farming practices and his dedication to producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of the region.
This wine is best enjoyed with a hearty meal, such as a beef stew or a roasted lamb dish. It pairs well with strong cheeses, such as Roquefort or Stilton, and is perfect for a special occasion or a romantic dinner for two.
