2021 Cote Rotie This is extremely bright and fresh on the nose, black fruits, raspberry toned, nice weight on the palate vintage considered, a nice depth to the blueberry, dark cherry and spice notes, a touch of tannin and good length too. L&S (Apr 2023)

*Case price discount: Mix any 12 bottles of wine (or 9 litre equivalent) or 6 bottles of Champagne, Spirits, Sweet Wine or Fortified (4.5 litres) to get the discounted 'case price' for each bottle.
Expressive, mineral-accented black raspberry and boysenberry scents, along with hints of black pepper and licorice. Juicy and expansive on the palate, offering spice-laced black and blue fruit preserve, candied violet and star anise flavors that deepen through the back half. Finishes very long and youthfully tannic, with the mineral and spice notes resonating. 20% whole clusters. Rating: 92-94 Josh Raynolds, www.vinousmedia.com (Dec 2022)
Domaine Graeme & Julie Bott
A love story and a bit of good fortune; a love of the Syrah grape that led Graeme to the Rhone and the love of his life Julie, who came together whilst working at the prestigious cellars of Stephane Ogier. Theirs is a back story of adventure and spirit and one of serendipity too.
Our relationship with the pair stretches back some 8 years or so, when we often stopped and shared a beer after the Marché aux vins in Ampuis every January, it was no surprise when they told us they were setting out on their own journey.
The surprise came when they discovered that the house they had purchased in Verin, complete with 0.35 hectare of garden, was within the appellation of Condrieu, between the in-demand Coteau de Chéry and the illustrious Chateau Grillet. Graeme & Julie like to pick early to capture the freshness, and the wines tend be expressive, bright and pure.
