Our committee's review
Here’s a gem uncovered by the Selection Committee at the Marché d’Ampuis two years ago — the must-visit annual January fair at the very heart of the Condrieu and Côte-Rôtie vineyards. While this legendary terroir still makes wine lovers dream, real discoveries here have sadly become rare, especially at this price level.
Domaine Degache Frères, a small 4-hectare estate run by three generations, is one of our latest favorites from the region. Offered at a fair price, this Côte-Rôtie sets the bar high — and you’ll want to move quickly.
The 2023 Red Côte-Rôtie strikes the perfect balance of classic Syrah character, with mineral notes from the terroir, a subtle smoky touch and a beautifully judged oak aging. With its firm tannic structure, this is a wine that needs time — give it 6 to 12 months before opening to let it show its full potential, and it will easily age for 6 to 8 years, even longer for those who enjoy the patience.
Côte-Rôtie under 35 euros: a deal so rare it feels like a dream.
