Domaine Rémi Niero - Côte-Rôtie Eminence 2024
90-92/100
Vinous
“A deep, lingering wine that reveals all the charms of a great Syrah terroir”
“Made from a co-fermentation of 95% Syrah and 5% Viognier, the 2024 Côte-Rôtie Eminence immediately reveals notes of red plum, crushed violet, black cherry, and cedar with delicate undertones. Medium-bodied, round, and concentrated, the 2024 vintage promises to be a Côte-Rôtie of great ease, offering lovely liveliness throughout the palate leading to a refined finish.” (Vinous 2026)

About the estate:
Tucked away on a small cul-de-sac in the heart of the village of Condrieu, Domaine Niero comprises just nine hectares of vineyards: four in Condrieu, two in Côte Rôtie, just over one in Saint-Joseph, and just under one in Crozes-Hermitage. There is also about one hectare dedicated to the Collines Rhodaniennes IGP, planted with both Syrah and Viognier. Although the clean, modern approach is undeniable, the wines are full of character and expressive of their different terroirs.

About the estate:
Since 2004, Rémi has been at the helm of this family-owned estate, which boasts a fine selection of terroirs in Condrieu, with 4 hectares divided into six plots. He also produces several Côte-Rôtie vintages from the Viallière and Bassenon terroirs, as well as a Saint-Joseph vintage, Bois Prieur, and another in Crozes-Hermitage. The wines are serious, rather classic, with aging that sometimes leaves a slight mark on them during their youth.
