Domaine Jean-Michel Gérin - Côte-Rôtie Côte-Bodin 2023
"A demanding but exceptional terroir".
Côte-Bodin is a dome with three positions on the same parcel, located in the center of the Côte-Rôtie appellation. An east-facing slope, a south-facing slope and a south-west-facing slope, which brings freshness but also reveals the power of Syrah. The demanding terroir, with its high iron oxide content, gives the wine a sanguine character and fine tannins. A straightforward, lively yet silky cuvée with a generous, fruity body without heaviness - Very limited quantities.

Eye
Dense deep red with violet highlights
Nose
Intense fruitiness of wild blackberry, blackcurrant and black cherry, enhanced by notes of violet, black pepper and licorice. With aeration, notes of wet stone and light smoke emerge, reminiscent of the mineral terroir.
Mouth
Straightforward, lively but silky. Generous, fruity body without heaviness: blackberry mingles with a graphite nuance, firm but polished tannins ensure fine balance. Long, taut finish, dominated by a saline freshness that prolongs the taste experience, leaving a trail of black fruit, spice and warm rock.

About the domain :
Domaine Jean-Michel Gerin was created in 1983 with the purchase of a parcel of vines in Côte-Rôtie. Jean-Michel comes from a family that has been established in the region for 6 generations. The estate's first cuvée was created in 1987, following the integration of the family vineyards (those of Marcel and Alfred Guerin) into the Jean-Michel Gerin estate. In 1988, the estate carried out its first separate vinification, first on the "Les Grandes Places" plot, then in 1996 with grapes from the "La Landonne" parcel. In the early 1990s, Jean-Michel Gerin undertook the construction of a new winery and barrel cellar. The vineyard expanded in 2003, with the planting of the "La viallière" parcel in Côte-Rôtie, on slopes ranging from 40% to 60%. The first vintages are produced in 2009. Michaël and Alexis Gerin later joined the Jean-Michel Gerin estate, which expanded to a dozen hectares in the 2010s.
