2022 Pierre Amadieu Roulepierre Cotes du Rhone
A fleshy mid weighted Cotes du Rhone with a chewy feel.
Pierre Amadieu is a family-owned domaine established in 1929 in the village of Gigondas. Wines are made, matured and bottled on the estate, which now covers 140 hectares. Pierre is in charge of winemaking and maturation, while his uncle Claude runs the vineyard.
Made from a blend of Grenache and Syrah this is a vibrant modern style of Cotes du Rhone. Deep dark red heart with black tinged edges and a red to dark red hue. Dark raspberry and liquorice scents mix with hints of black cherry, scorched earth and peppered herb notes. Juicy black raspberry and liquorice fruits swamp the fleshy mid weighted palate with notions of scorched earth and peppered dried herbs lying underneath. Mildly grainy tannins impart a chewy feel onto the peppery finish.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
