Coteaux de Bassenon

2013 Cote Rotie Red Blend

Domaine Jean Michel Stephan Coteaux de Bassenon is a remarkable red blend from the esteemed Cote Rotie region, celebrated for its exquisite expression of terroir. This captivating wine showcases a deep ruby red color, hinting at its richness and complexity. On the nose, it offers a delightful bouquet of dark fruits, such as blackcurrant and berry, intertwined with subtle notes of spice and herbs that reflect the unique microclimate of the region. With a full-bodied character, the wine delivers a harmonious balance of high acidity that invigorates the palate, and firm tannins that provide structure without overwhelming its fruit-forward profile. On the palate, flavors of ripe plum and dark cherry unfold, culminating in a lingering, elegant finish that invites another sip. This 2013 vintage is a splendid representation of the artistry behind red blends from Cote Rotie, making it a superb choice for connoisseurs and casual wine lovers alike.
