From now until 2026A model of Côte-Rôtie, the Domaine de Bonserine forges some of the very best wines of the appellation. A heritage of old vines, ultra-luxurious maturation in small tuns, perfect control of the ripeness of the grapes: rare are the Syrahs that combine power and finesse in such a nuanced expression. The old Syrah vines, locally known as "serine", are parts of what makes them such incredible wines, coupled with the House's high standards and the prestigious parcels that make up the estate.
