Tasting Notes
"Spice-accented blueberry, cherry, peony, olive paste and a hint of cracked pepper on the highly fragrant nose. Appealingly sweet and energetic in style, showing very good depth and clarity to the juicy, smoke- and spice-tinged black and blue fruit and floral pastille flavors. Shows excellent clarity and bright, spicy lift on the subtly tannic finish, which leaves a hint of violet pastille behind."

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.
