La Landonne

Red

La Landonne is a premier single-vineyard wine: dense, sensual and majestic. It combines the depth of Syrah with the finesse characteristic of the majestic northern schist slopes of Côte-Rôtie. It is a rare and surprisingly little-known expression of La Landonne, in which the power remains gently contained.

Terroir of La Landonne

At the heart of the vertiginous Côte-Rôtie landscape, this parcel rests on the lower part of the slope, where Syrah reaches its finest levels of ripeness. The clay-limestone soil is composed of schist rich in iron oxides mixed with fragments of mica-schist, bringing the wine depth, tension, color, and structure.

La Landonne expresses the singularity of one of the finest parcels at the heart of Côte-Rotie, benefiting from a double exposure in the northernmost appellation of the Northern Rhône. With sunlit emotion for a broad, majestically present wine, it offers a complex aromatic palette with sensual notes of peony and sweet spices, a fullness without heaviness.
