Domaine Georges Vernay Blonde du Seigneur Côte Rôtie 2021

Christine Vernay is recognised as one of the Northern Rhône's most gifted wine makers and is gaining increasing recognition for her red wines as well as her celebrated Condrieu. The Côte Rôtie 'Blonde du Seigneur' is made from Syrah (97%) and a touch of Viognier (3%) sourced from mature vines (30+ years old) grown on the 'Côte Blonde' schist slopes of the Côte-Rôtie appellation. The Blonde du Seigneur Côte Rôtie is the perfect blend of intensity and delicacy. Dark in colour with a mineral smoky nose of dark fruits, black olive and pepper all enhanced by a floral component brought by the addition of Viognier. This is a highly aromatic and elegant wine. Round with good structure and smooth, silky tannins, this wine has great finesse and a long, persistent finish.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
