Producer Note

Domaine Graeme & Julie Bott are quickly becoming one of the Northern Rhône’s most promising producers. Their story is one of hard work, romance and a stroke of luck. Graeme is from New Zealand, while Julie is a native of the Northern Rhône; they met working at Domaine Ogier, one of the most prominent Côte-Rôtie producers. It was through the purchase of their first house that they discovered its impeccably placed garden was on the hillside of Vérin - prime Condrieu AOC - and so their Domaine was born. They own 10 hectares of vines spread across the Côte Rôtie, Condrieu, St Joseph and little-known Seyssuel. Graeme and Julie are boutique producers through and through: they started by making their wines using a neighbour's garage but have now taken up residence in their own cellar, tucked just beneath La Mouline in Côte-Rôtie. Their handcrafted wines are nuanced and complex examples of their appellation.

Tasting Note

A joyful, fragrant Syrah that is full of charm with aromas of red cherry, wild herbs and touch of pepper. Floral notes of peonies and violets mingle with the fruit on the fresh and juicy palate.
