About Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur

Initially, it was Marcel Gerin and Alfred Gerin (grandfather and father, respectively) who laid the foundations. Subsequently, Jean-Michel (the son who now lends his name to the winery) perpetuated the family's legacy. Today, the torch is being passed to the next generation, embodied by his sons, Michaël and Alexis Gerin.

With them at the helm, the legacy and vinification of Domaine Jean Michel Gerin wines are in excellent hands. Hallelujah! Our elation is indeed justified. Can we look forward to many more years of savoring the reds from one of the Rhône's benchmarks? A warm welcome to that prospect! We are confident that Jean-Michel Gerin is fervently mentoring his progeny. It is our hope that this includes the renowned Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur.

Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur stands out as one of the most captivating wines from this estate. The blend of diverse terroirs within the A.O.C. Côte Rôtie—situated in the northern part of the appellation—is the secret behind this monovarietal crafted from Syrah. Typically, we speak of diminutive plots—upon schist, mica, and loess—where yields are exceedingly limited. Here, with a south/southeastern exposure and mild winters, hot summers, and consistent rainfall, the vineyards thrive, developing exceptionally refined tannins. This results in Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur being approachable even in its youth—a notable distinction, as it is customary in the Rhône for robust and intense reds to fully mature in the cellar.

Since 2020, Domaine Jean Michel Gerin has fully embraced organic and biodynamic practices, which serves as an assurance of quality for Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur. This red is harvested directly from the plot belonging to Mr. Seigneur, the farmer from whom Gerin acquired the 11 vineyards, each around 30 years old. Handpicked with precision, the grapes for this red are meticulously sorted before reaching the winery, where they are processed and fermented in stainless steel vats. Throughout this process, Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur undergoes careful management to avoid malolactic fermentation, preserving its vibrancy and zesty acidity. Ultimately, Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur matures for 22 months in barrels (20% of which are new), tempering its vigor and character.

Despite this period of repose, Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur has a long life ahead. Although this red is currently drinkable, Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur possesses the potential to endure up to a decade in the bottle, awaiting the perfect moment for tasting. Unquestionably, Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur is a wine that rewards the patient connoisseur.

2020

Domaine Jean Michel Gerin Côte-Rôtie Champin Le Seigneur 2020 is an opulent, vivacious, and dynamic wine. On the nose, it presents a fruity bouquet, accompanied by a subtly reductive quality (decanting is recommended). The palate experiences a vigorous and concentrated profile, with chewy tannins.
