Tasting Notes

"We brought this back from visiting Stéphane Ogier in 2013, and have held on to it ever since (it was marked out as a 2010 by chalk on the bottle rather than a label). Opened it on a Saturday night in November with the Ivy shepherds pie (which I think has also made an appearance as an accompaniment in this wines of the year before). Definitely makes me question why I don't drink more Côte Rotie, with perfect just-bitter-enough liquorice bud, anis and rosemary that lifts things up at the finish. Impossible to resist. At the beginning of its drinking window, going nowhere any time soon. It's the hold that it keeps on your palate that is so crazy, does everything that great Burgundy does in its deceptively delicate structure, and the perfume and crunchiness of fruit, but it has the weight and a kick of a great northern Rhone. No new oak."

The Producer

Michel et Stéphane Ogier

The Ogier family was making more money growing fruit in those days! By 1987, they were bottling and selling their entire harvest. From that point forward, they never looked back! In 1998, the name of the domaine was changed to Michel & Stephane Ogier, announcing the arrival and participation of Stephane Ogier, who joined his father in the family business. Before devoting himself to the estate full-time, Stephane Ogier spent time learning about wine by working in Beaune and South Africa. In 2003, they completely renovated their cellars and added new, temperature controlled, fermentation vats. Domaine Michel & Stephane Ogier Cote Rotie, like many Cote Rotie properties, is a completely family run estate. Today, Stephane Ogier is responsible for many of the domaine’s decisions to produce Ogier Cote Rotie. Today Stéphane Ogier is one of the northern Rhône Valley’s most distinguished producers who sells his best wines for up to $650 a bottle.
