Description
Simon Field MW, Rhône Wine Buyer
One can usually rely on M. Rostaing for an aphoristic analysis of the vintage in question. 2012, he has decided, offers. ‘le plaisir évident mais avec le sérieux derrière’. Hardly Oscar Wilde, but the message is clear. Whilst perhaps not an iron fist in a velvet glove, the vintage offers, pace the great man, plenty of substance and ageing potential. The imposition of a Latin name on his main cuvée has, it seems, been a success and he maintains his fleet of roto-fermentors, de-stemming the grapes as and when appropriate and now ageing the significant majority of his wines in demi-muid.
