The estate and the wine |
|
|
Bonserine, a Northern Rhône Valley gem, masterfully produces deeply moving wines within its appellations. With a rich legacy of ancient vines and sophisticated aging processes, this estate seamlessly blends robustness with delicacy, presenting a nuanced wine portfolio.
Nestled among Côte Rôtie's most esteemed plots – Côte Blonde, Côte Brune, Moutonne, and Sarrasine – the vineyard thrives on Ampuis' age-old hillside terroirs, home to the local "serine" syrah strain. Equally impressive in Condrieu, Bonserine ensures the viognier varietal reaches its peak expression, maintaining the estate's esteemed reputation. |

The 2021 red Côte Rôtie La Sarrasine showcases a finesse and elegance that's beautifully defined. This graceful vintage offers a lush, velvety texture with silky tannins, unfolding delicate aromas of violet, graphite, pepper, and sweet spices. It's an exquisitely refined interpretation of Côte Rôtie, full of nuance and sophistication. Rated 93/100 by Olivier Poussier, the Best Sommelier in the World 2000. |
