2016 Domaine Rene Rostaing Côte-Rôtie Ampodium is a benchmark expression of Northern Rhône Syrah, crafted from a blend of multiple vineyard sites across the appellation. Produced in limited quantities, this cuvee showcases the finesse and complexity that define Côte-Rôtie wines.
In the glass, it reveals aromas of blackberry, plum, violet, and pepper, layered with subtle notes of olive, smoke, and spice. The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a refined, lingering finish. Critics consistently rate the 2016 vintage in the low-to-mid 90s, highlighting its balance, elegance, and ageing potential.
This 375ml half bottle is perfect for collectors, casual fine wine drinking, or sampling a top Rhône producer without committing to a full bottle.
