François Villard Côte Rôtie Le Gallet Blanc 2018

酒莊介紹

François Villard, originally a chef, became one of the most respected winemakers in the Northern Rhône. Since founding his domaine in the early 1990s, he has focused on expressing the full potential of Rhône terroirs through meticulous vineyard work and precise winemaking.

風土條件

“Le Gallet Blanc” comes from schistous and granitic soils on the steep slopes of Côte-Rôtie. These well-drained, mineral-rich soils contribute finesse, aromatic complexity, and aging potential to the Syrah grape.

品飲筆記

Deep ruby color with purple highlights. The nose is intense and elegant, offering aromas of blackberries, violets, pepper, and smoky notes. The palate is structured yet silky, with refined tannins and a long, spicy finish marked by mineral freshness.

A precise and elegant Côte-Rôtie, combining power, floral elegance, and complexity — true to the signature style of François Villard.

餐酒搭配

Ideal with grilled meats, duck breast, lamb chops, or aged hard cheeses.
