This completely biodynamic producer continues to be a top source for elegant fruit- and mineral-driven Cote-Rotie. The house style is never heavy or dramatic and alcohol levels are usually on the low side, even in 2005, making them among the more graceful wines of the northern Rhone. They age well, too.

This completely biologique estate has been producing consistently elegant versions of Cote-Rotie in recent years, and the current line-up, which I tasted with Brigitte Roch, promises to be their most successful yet.The 2004s here are fragrant and silky, with almost Burgundian texture.In 2003, the wines are atypically lush, but while undeniably ripe (and higher in alcohol than is typical at this estate), show no roasted or pruney qualities.
