đĽ Untamed Elegance â CĂ´te-RĂ´tie 2019 â Coteaux de Bassenon â Maison StĂŠphan
Wines like this donât just happen. On the steep granite slopes of Coteaux de Bassenon â the southernmost lieu-dit of CĂ´te-RĂ´tie â grow vines planted as far back as 1896. Whatâs harvested here is rare, deep-rooted and intensely expressive. This unfiltered, unsulfured natural wine is a true reflection of its rugged origins: pure, powerful and profoundly compelling.
đ Blackcurrant, florals and bittersweet depth
On the nose: blackcurrant, violets, wild herbs, cracked pepper. The palate is compact and intense, with concentrated juice, structured tannins and a smoky, long finish touched with dark chocolate bitterness. Viognier adds an aromatic lift and floral tension. A rare blend with old-world soul and vibrant energy.
