"A demonstrative expression in which the fruit rivals in intensity".
"Only 650 bottles have been filled with the 2019 Côte-Rôtie Oenothèque Le Champon, a full-bodied, muscular, blockbuster-looking red with an intense aromatic profile. Melted licorice, black cherry compote, tobacco, forest floor, graphite and a touch of vanilla all come to the fore on the nose. Built around massive wood tannins, this bold 2019 would benefit from another year in a cool cellar to soften." (Vinous 2024)

About the domain :
After studying in Beaune, then gaining experience in the United States and in Bordeaux, on his wife's estate (Ch. Filliol), Stéphane Pichat returned to his land to breathe new life into this ancient estate, founded by his great-grandparents. Established in 2000, he began bottling wines of impeccable quality from his 5 hectares in Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu.
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Wine rated ( 2022 guide) 91-94/100 (Great wine)
About the wine:
More open and opulent than Pichat's other bottlings, Cote Rotie Oenotheque 2019 offers scents of brandied black cherries and dried spices. It's very ripe, concentrated and rich, with dessert-like flavors, a rich, velvety mouthfeel and a long, gently tannic finish. Aged for two years in new 400-liter barrels, then 19 months in barrels used to age Condrieu.

About the wine:
Sample tasted on barrel: Côte Rôtie Oenothèque 2019 is a very small production that has not been destemmed and will spend nearly four years aging in barrel. Its deep purple/plum color reveals a fleshy, sanguine, rich, full-bodied and exotic Côte Rôtie that offers powerful notes of red and black fruits, bloody meat, vanilla, graphite and ground pepper. It's full-bodied, concentrated and tannic, but I like its mid-palate density and overall balance. It'll be interesting to see how this puppy handles its four years in oak, but it's looking good so far.
