Domaine de la Roseraie

Grands Vins de Bourgogne Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 1947

Poured blind. Nose of cabernet sauvignon. Estate was located in Grignan, ie current CdR orbit (but post-war labeling hilarity / historical reference to classical Kingdom of Burgundy with capital at Arles?). Fascinating, dazzling, unexplainable. Color guesses ran ‘70s (totally clear rim, some super thin hint of browning, but still very pure dark core running almost to the edge before). Great length, but again blind we all called cabernet nose for the minty, cedary character. Body maybe suggested some cinsault, but we were all way off mark served blind. Buy at auction if ever spotted! — 2 years ago

La Roseraie 2011

2011 Vintage- ok, I was super suspect of a 2011 Rosé, but good lord this is delicious! Tasted blind I would’ve called Oregon Pinot, no lie! Still has super bright acidity and desiccated fruit and dying flowers. I am a super fan — 7 years ago
